It's nice to have a serious photographer as judge this time round. Something that's been lacking since last time I was judge

That sounds like a nomination entry to me!

almost correct, used my gopro no apps

can you imagine how well that banana glowed with 200lumens shining on it in pitch black woodland, it was like a doggers beacon

I'm amazed at the lengths i go to for this thread, I deserve a medal

look you pair, I thought @potsy had won

I at least had the sense to take them out of focus

 

[Hill Wimp]

Nah they looked good to me and totally in focus




Where are my glasses

trust me, they're blurred

I was shaking with fear of meeting Barry and Kevin and they fancied a threesome



in truth, Ive never seen any doggers down there. Trust me I've looked everywhere

Definatly medal material

Liege we have arrived

Watching the TdF in French whilst Hop cleans up after her earlier mechanical.

Much less waffling than UK coverage.

Staying in a budget Ibis and i am certainly impressed.

Couple of pics of the route.

Who said the Belgians aren't stylish

Cycling through Flanders Fields. On a nice day this would have been glorious.

Hit the Ravel cycle neywork 2k out of our location.

Belgium was boring and austere and although we are still in it just Flemish Belgium as opposed to Brabant is much nicer.

Now for food

After wee have all been accused of not being very creative , I went out with a scone and decided to take some photos...

Not quite a before and after, more a before and during... and this was surprisingly hard to do because the DOF was an issue getting both the scone and the scene in focus! It was an either/or, so I did one of each! I may try again tomorrow if the weather is OK and if I have another scone out with me, which depends on me cooking some this evening!
