Good snap there, even allowing for the fact that you were eyeing someone else's teeth! Me, I've not found anything yet that fits the theme so I'm gonna be a non-starter as usual :(

Me, I do have ideas, but I'm not sure wether to enter my own competition, and with one of my pet themes no less...
Hurry, hurry, hurry... BIG bargains... Last three days...etc.

C'mon Hsing, if this is one of your pet subjects, I want to see what you really had in mind when you chose it.

I'll even say, "Pretty please."


I want to die peacefully in my sleep, just like grandpa. Not screaming and panicking like his passengers.

Here's my entry, an abandoned and derelict appartment block from socialist times and the fruits of a nearby, forgotten garden.

My guess is, it's not the camera. I think it's the result of sunlight. Something I haven't seen for a few weeks up here in the damp northeast.

I have a Panasonic DMC-FZ50 (like Rincewind, by the way). But we had a wonderful autumn afternoon light indeed. Which is gone today to be replaced by grey heaven and bleak daylight.

Hsing - Love the photo but i must admit when it first appeared on my screen (without my glasses on) i though it was a big dog poo.

Scared the hell out of me... at so early in the morning...

Q. How do you write?
A. One word at a time.

Now that would have been taking it too far, really. You're not one of those wearing glasses for fancy, are you?

Isn't that being a bit poolitically incorrect?

Thanks Hsing. Joc, just having awesome light doesn't mean your picture will capture it. Of course if you don't have it in the first place...

All the light we've had up here for the past few weeks has been the equivalent of a 4x neutral density filter. Horrible!

So, here we are, one day after the... erm... third update, and we do have a few entries after all. I'd say:


CLOSED!


Thank you all very much, voting thread is soon to go up.
