No, no, no ... just a spoof on the Standard Rule:

"5 categories, enter up to one picture for each."

Well you won Lamplighter now you have you make the list for Treasure Hunt 12 ;)

Please, I just wanted to play with the rules a little !
Other Dwellars may still be planning to submit their pics, so let's wait and see if there aren't some more worthy entries. OK ?

She's teasing you.

Cardboard

Ugly

Win.

No-one ready to post their best money shot yet?

Well lamplighter already posted a rimshot....

Money and Plastic (in that order):

Street and Ugly:

Cardboard

so far, the uglies are amusing me. I guess ugly is in the eye of the beholder, but I see nothing ugly about the two posted so far.

I agree re Jinx's (sorry) just because the photo is absolutely beautiful.
Mine is probably the context. It's three examples of brutalist architecture sat smack bang opposite a lovely Georgian building. But as they're on opposite sides of the street there's no way to get the two in together.

Thx SG. I though he was so ugly he was cute.
Happy to see you submitting your pics...

Money

oh nice! I like

You do like to get your 2 cents in Jinx ;) Great shot!

Oh that's lovely SG, always good to see fresh meat--er, new blood--ah, additional competitors jump right in!

Lane and Plastic

I like the Iron Road.

Here's my own for street/Rd/Ave, whatever.

Street/Road thing (with tilt/shift goodness)

That's awesome Digr.

Thx.:)

Ooh Glatt!
Love the old pennies!

Also, the two shillings were still in use as ten pence pieces in my childhood.

'Florins' they were called - the 1966 one in Glatt's photo must have been one of last, there can't have been too many minted beyond then.

Keep your eye on the Money...

ugly

is that actually resting on your eyeball?!:eek:

Almost. I wear contacts.

OMG no way. I assumed it was photoshopped. Please tell me you didn't put an actual coin on your eyeball.

I have to go shudder in the corner for awhile now.

I didn't put an actual coin on my eyeball.

dear cellar, I am stupendously busy with swim and dive champs this week, so if anyone could work on the polls that would be awesome, thanks :)

I never got round to cardboard :( that's how busy I am

What program do you do it in mon?

If I knew how, I would gladly do the polls, but, alas, I do not know how.:sniff:

Whoever does the polls, Thank You.:D

whatever came with our camera paintshop pro I think it's called.

I might get time to do one tonight. Thor came in 8th in the Diving, btw, out of 46, top 16 score. :D

I'll probably have a chance tomorrow at some point.

This is a great bunch of pictures. I'm glad we had so many participants. At least five in each category.

Jinx, that bug on the berry is my favorite overall image in this thread, but I can't vote for it. It's just not ugly at all to me. It's amazing and cool.

So I had to come in here and compliment it because it deserves some praise. WTF is that thing?

Good job, everyone!

Agreed on that one!

Thanks glatt! For doing all the polls AND the bug pic praise.
I don't know what they are, but they are on the wild raspberries that we pick at French Creek every year. This is the first year that I managed to keep one captive and alive long enough to get its picture - and it wasn't easy. They're really tiny and don't seem sit still at all.
And I agree, great job all.

different angle...

I'm just an observer and voter, but this is one of my favorite threads, or whatever you call a group of threads. Keep up the great work everyone!

edit: jinx, is that seriously his eyeball, or whatever passes for an eyeball? Wow!

I wonder if the board's Admin could have a look at the voting mechanism - it seems to be broken as none of the votes members must be placing for my pictures appear to be registering!
