Clever! Honestly, the "rules" don't say anything to disqualify that pic. If someone objects they can simply not vote for it.

This forum allows conversation on non-controversial topics, therefore no politics or religion. "The Campfire" is an area meant for casual, civil discussions. 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.
The words insight and incite are pronounced the same. But one of them will get you banned and the other will not. Before hitting the Submit button be certain which of the two better describes your post.

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.

Charlie, I really like that picture. Hope you don't mind, but I downloaded a copy, and cleaned it up a bit to see the bike better...

Thanks Bob, that's more how my eye sees it in my garage! Cheers!
That's how it works. Our eyes have incredible dynamic range. Much more than monitors, printers, or cameras. But there are some things we can do to make a picture look more like what we see.

Bike? ... √
Flag(s)? ... √
Pole(s)? ... √
Military? ... √
OK, gotcha covered. :encouragement:
For some reason, the US flag was tangled with the pole, and was not flying with the others.

Help please.
Would one of you fine folks please do me a favor and look at my post #1076 in this thread a see if my image shows up. I've been using google photos to host pics. I've noticed that if I look back over my posts with images hosted on google photos, the images only show up if I'm logged in to google. I just tested this. Not logged into google, no image in my post. Log in to google, image shows up. Log out of google, image disappears. This is on my work PC. Looking at the same post on my phone, all I see is a small empty square where my picture should be. I'm considering using imgur to host pics but I won't bother if everyone else can see my pics whether I'm logged into google or not. I've notices some people use imgur, some flickr.

Would that be the one of two cats eating spaghetti? :-k
Actually, no, I don't see anything. I do use Google Chrome to view the forum, but no picture is showing for me.

OK. Just replaced that image in post #1076 with one hosted on imgur. Could I get another check. Thanks Gents!
Looks good at my end...
GREAT! Thank you. Yep, shows up when I view the forum on my phone too. THANKS GUYS!
And Steve, If I ever win the Pic-of-the-week-game, My theme just may be two cats eating spaghetti, on a motorcycle, of course.

That might be to specific/restrictive. How about two cats eating any sort of pasta....?
From ride yesterday, did stop at a couple big flags flying but could not find any interesting pose. Maybe might find something later in the week.
Did find this.
Maybe not really flags, but Multiple "flags".
Can you make a guess as to why this particular selection of flags....?
THis is an industrial processing place that was a customer of mine that I made many service calls, working on industrial equipment controls.
Clue in a moment.

Yep. A coffee roaster facility. Magnum Coffee Roaster in Spring Lake.
Flags? I found some flags. How about 444 of them... This afternoon I took a ride to Hermitage Pennsylvania. That is where you'll find the Avenue of 444 Flags. The significance of the 444 flags is, it's the number of days 52 Americans were held hostage during the Iran Hostage Crisis. From November 4th 1979 to January 20th 1981(remember that). On day 100 of the crisis, they put up 100 flags then one each day after. It really is a spectacle to see.

Great shots so far this week!
Here's mine. A bit sketchy on the setup. Tried several different locations for different effects and ended up hot and sweaty. Ended up riding up a grassy hill for this one.
