Sod this, you're not around on MSN, so I'll post it here. Hope that's not breaking any rules. FWIW, not edited or even cropped, shot on a Nikon P&S (POS?) digicam.

Right, that narrows down what I was gonna enter (Somehow.. I have that same shot as Foggy... :o ) :lol: Wonder if Nick may enter it too!

For those who are confused, me, Nick and Foggy went on a mini photo shoot last week, and got lots of funny looks!

There is dark clouds over my photo shooting, just would need to get that carb sorted, but he tries to be stronger than me, pffff

Of course my car is not washed for many months so need to wash it too, it is getting bit tight now :(

Grrrrr, so miffed :evil:

It's the Nottingham Riverside Festival this weekend. As I cycled to work this morning there were oodles of photogenic boats moored along the river bank. Would make an excellent photoshoot, but there is no way of getting the Volvo down there.

Grrrrr.

Hmm, I do believe it is today that it is 5th day so this is last day to take part to this first round?
