Pic of the week game
- Thread starter Burque73
- Start date
I'll vote for Burque's only because I enjoyed looking at that guy every year when I lived there
Saturday, Well, 1am Pacific time, 4 am Eastern here.
Woke up and cant get back to sleep, so I will do the tally (count votes instead of sheep, har har)
Keerfunk 2, Me Redman 5, Rich 2, Dorkburger 3, Burque 2
Thanks guys.
Yes, that is a memorable picture for me, but I didn't think it was that good of a photograph, as far as photos go.
Kerry's is much more interesting, Rich's much more adventurous, Glen's much more artistic, and Roger's more unique, Jedz's tells more of a story, Sandy's much more of a pretty scene, Trevor's much more interesting relative to GSes, Bob's much more interesting with the compare-contrast grouping, Steve's more significant of a big trip-adventure.
I did have a few shots to choose from of different occasions of three bikes over the year (between my 650G, 850G, Shadow500, 1100GK, sons SV650, Tiger1050 at various times). Some of those pics had just the bikes, some had three people, or 4 people or 5 people. But I choose that shot cuz seemed the best lighting, less distracting background, bikes more evenly spaced-positioned, and was 3 couples.
Okay, am yawning now. (maybe you too after all that yacking).
I dont have any picture nor any subject-theme-category in mind at present. Have some things going on this morning, but will see what I can think up by early-mid afternoon. Will try to think of some theme or category. Thanks again.

Theme : Colorful Background.
Someplace or situation where you saw a colorful situation-scene-thing, and framed the picture to have that in the background, or AS the background (and I dont mean use photoediting software to put something in the background, nor put bike in front of something) (but, I suppose if you are good enough that we can't tell, or maybe other voters don't care).
My example-submission is fall foliage color of one big maple tree, but your colorful background doesn't have to be fall foliage color. My example-submission is pretty much all the same orange-red color, but yours can be other color or multi colors. Or you interpret "colorful" how ever you want.
In my pic the tree is on a bit of a hill, the bike is on the edge of the road, I went further down hill, got low, zoomed in to fill frame with the colorful background. Was a slightly overcast day, not a typical for here fall heavy overcast or cloudy, so still a lot of light, but not have to deal with shadows like would on a sunny day. I knew was a good day for photos, then found that tree in a park. Have gone back to that park for other fall color shots in years since.

Cheers to this great sentence Redman. Your win is the most decisive I recall.
I remember getting a little wet on this ride, but the shot I found at the end of the day made it totally worth it.
NOT an entry. This old pic came up in my Facebook Memories this morning. This is Me and the Wife not long after we married in 1980. You can see the rear end of my old 76 T500 Suzuki on the Left and the rear end of my 73 Ford Ranger on the Right. The only one I still have is the Wife.
