    Well IMHO, everyone met the theme, so which is the best photograph becomes the question, at least to me.

    Composition, exposure, originality, etc., are all important criteria in my mind...

    Which one would I hang on my wall???? That is the question.

      If it is crisper, clearer and better exposed that you want, I need a better camera, and that isn’t going to happen ant time soon.

          Nah....It's not the tool, it's the mechanic....

          People have been taking great photos long before fancy equipment was invented.
          Phones, old point and shoots, film, or a fancy DSLR - Don't matter...

          Composition, exposure, originality have nothing to do with the tool.

          Anyway, you've already posted up some darn fine photos from your tool of choice...
          Carry on...

            Mornin' fellas.

            There's no official vote counter so if anyone wants to tally up the votes and post your findings, feel free to do so. Out of curiosity, and a little impatience lol, I took the liberty.

            With seven pics getting voted on it looks like this week it's Dorkburger FTW!

            Congrats, Glen. Whatcha got for us next?

              Yep, I concur.

              Steve 1, baatfam 2, Redman 3, Dorkburger 4, Gustov 1, Trevor 2.

              So Glen's photographic finesse beats out my sillyness (as it should).

              >>Later Note: Yep, I missed one, a vote for Jedz in post 42 (somehow I started counting in post 43). Sorry Justin.

                  I noticed that, and had been wondering. I figure you intended to vote for kerrfunk, so it's all good.

                    This week....Walls.... They have an interesting role in moto photography, from serving as a neutral background to allow focus on the cycle, all the way up to whimsical murals where a cycle can be placed into a scene.
