Deliberate anti-social activity including personal insults, profanity, pornography, racism, threats and purposely inflammatory posts may result in suspension of forum access or possibly a permanent ban from GSR.

    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I don't intend for this to be an entry as I won't be available to choose a new topic but I wanted to share all the same. Lassen National Park on Thursday. I vote for Trevor this week...
 
I was deliberating between Bob Baatfaam, Trevor and Sandy, ..... but then realised this is now Saturda.y.
So I will make a tally instead.

Tally
9 votes total, divided between only two submissions.
4 for Sandy, 5 for Trevor.

Congrats Trev.

I was on the fence with my vote yesterday and on into the evening. After a glass of wine and watching a movie with my wife, I forgot to chime in with a vote.

Congrats, Trevor. Looked like you had fun taking that photo.
 
Thanks guy... I?m away on a dirt bike ride through Washington and Oregon... lucky me. So I?m posting from my iPad hope this works

sunset is the theme

 
I have hundreds of pretty sunrises, but very few sunsets, especially with a bike included.

This is about the best I have.

This is my GS1100E back in 2008, right after I got it up and running. It was a $500, eBay special. It was a mix of '82 and '83 parts, and needed a bit of work.

I always liked the way the setting sun lit up the bike in this picture, turning the red and black to gold.

And we would know the difference.... how?

Oh, because sunrizes would be in the east and sunsets would be in the west.... Okay.

You just check the metadata on the picture, Dave.

The metadata on the "sunset" picture I posted, says it was taken on Oct 4th, 2008, at 4:41pm.

I know that no one here would bother to check, but it can be done.

Love this game....:D

Oh, a serious answer.
I was mostly jokeing.
But thought maybe someone might say different color or something between sunrize and sunset.

Metadata. Huh. I just copy-paste the jpg files off my phone (or camera), so I dont-know-nuffin-bout-no metadata. .... well, other than date and time of the file (that would get altered if crop or edit the photo).

Although I have noticed that sunsets over Lake Michigan happen in the evening here in Michigan, but in Wisconson (and Chicago) that happens in the morning.
(jokeing again)
