Looks like you managed to capture the elusive, incredibly rare moment of spirit leaving the (pigeon) body!  You're quite right, Slobodan; it only happens once in the life of any pigeon. Rob C

Following the flu I flew away to the local village this morning to have the Fiesta serviced. It would have been nice to have had myself serviced instead, but I have to wait until around July for my next one. In a cold-sweaty spirit of faux emotion I shot this thing with my cellphone. Made me think of St Ansel and Yellowstone, though like Three Dog Night might have sung, "But I've never been there..." Never been to Needles either, for that matter. Rob C P.S.

Looks to me as if your Fiesta needs a new radiator cap. Or is that not the Fiesta?  Eric

Critiiques can and many times do become overbearing in the digital world, so here is one which I really like. Shot in a historic building Cobourb, Ontario.  JMR

It appeals to my senses too: makes me think of Stealth Bombers etc,; anything but a static building. Well seen. Regarding your first statement about critiques, that's why this particular space exists: takes any such wise-after-somebody-else's event stuff out of the picture. (Oh dear!) Rob C

Another one from my wait for the Fiesta to get itself oiled (and possibly scratched, too). I suspect the cell has taken more pix than conversations. Well, I do tend to ignore calls unless I suspect they could be important. One good aspect about retirement, I suppose.

Precisely my first thought. Lovely images from both of them. Jeremy

Aaaah, thanks so much Rob, Did me the world of good ..... and of course penned by the irreplaceable Hoyt Axton (his mother wrote Heartbreak Hotel) What a shame that the phrase "It really doesn't matter" has not been catapulted to R&R infamy like some of the other single lines. Cheers, W

On the subject of "It really doesn't matter" I doubt that is what the driver of this rented car thought on Sunday morning when he got up after a spot of possibly contraband honeymooning .....

First thing I thought of on seeing the image was the Ku Klux Klan, followed by a generous portion of condoms. I'm not implying that Klansmen and Kondoms are in any way connected, thought they possibly could be, just that thought 1 led automatically to thought 2, but you knew that. Was that one shot using the aid of your tripod adaptor unit for cellpixes? ;-) Rob C

Quite the opposite Rob, It was the Sinar F2 with a sheet of T-Max 100 and a 210mm Sinaron-SE 1:5.6. Cheers, W

Aha! In that case, the prosecution could be forgiven for believing that you had a hand in setting up the 'plateau', as Fred would have it! I thought you guys down there would all be asleep at this time of day/night. I'm just tossing up the relative virtues of staying home and making a lousy lunch or going out and paying for much of the same; I suppose it's part of the problem of having the flu: the mind doesn't think terribly well. In fact, it feels worse than being under the influence, because I know that I've had some excellent ideas whilst in that condition, but can't for the life of me remember the details of either the hows or the whys afterwards. Very frustrating indeed, more so as I know I'm not going to be able to reach that state again without too great a risk to survival - one glass of red a day isn't nearly enough to approach the level of mental equilibrium needed for those thoughts to materialize... bugger.
