I love the B&W treatment on the shot. Well done!

Heh! I thought for a minute Bob's "Rick" was back. That's a great catch and great processing, James.

Thanks Paul and Harry for the kind words

Last day, folks. Still time for an opportune shot.

Here are a few I took this week and am finally finding the time to upload.
My car (Or as my Dad likes to call it...his car) sitting in front of our house.

and my bike which might stretch the definition of automobile but it has wheels, goes on streets, and might have a top speed faster than a smart car.

Well done, Ross. How's the old Volvo running these days?

It's going great... Almost due for an oil change at 180,000 miles.

Yeah, they do last don't they. It looks very stately sitting on that stately street.

If you all haven't picked up on this, rjthomas222 is my oldest grandson Ross.

Thank you, and haha no dents, scratches, or bruises yet after almost 9 months of newly licensed driving

Had no idea, Jim. Good for both of you. My daughter is making noises about getting back into photography as a hobby, and it would be nice, but I'm not holding my breath. She works for a TV station in town and spends her days shooting and editing. Not sure that leaves much enthusiasm for photography as a hobby.

Well, Ross, welcome to this shoot, and I'll see you around at others I hope.

Congrats Ross, for the wonderful pictures. That talent must be in the family genes

I remember when I got my driving license, 39 years ago. What a huge step in freedom it was. I believe you've the same feelings.
Do me one favor, please. Drive safely and gentle . Enjoy it.

Regards
Klaus

I know that Harry.
My daughter Gale started too. Because I have Nikon equipment I gave her a Canon 1200D. No chance to take my lenses... . Tactical gift.
