A fleeting opportunity, gone forever. Perhaps you can edify us with a charcoal rendering?Originally Posted by The_Veg
There was a moment on Saturday when I found myself sitting comfortably and staring at my 2007 GS parked right next to a GORGEOUS 1973 Toaster in the golden light of the late-afternoon. That would have made a GREAT 'evolution' picture, but alas my camera's batteries had called it a day a few hours earlier.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why one should never leave the house without the 64-count box of Crayola crayons with the sharpener in the back!There was a moment on Saturday when I found myself sitting comfortably and staring at my 2007 GS parked right next to a GORGEOUS 1973 Toaster in the golden light of the late-afternoon.

I can't believe how incredulous I am.
My weekend was not Sunday, Saturday I rode all day, and left half-awake without my camera. I took this today. Forgive me.
I'm not seeing much adherence to the theme.
But I didn't take any pictures either.

Some bikes. Some with motors, some without.
Or use cameras with those *&^%^&$#@! proprietary batteries. Once had batteries die on me in Edinburgh, Scotland. But just walked across the street from the flower clock to the apotitary and bought 4 new AA batteries.
Problem solved. My latest camera a Canon S5 is a wierd beast but it does use AA batteries available just about anyplace in the world.

The guy named Jeff who hosted the tech-day (see thread in the airheads section) will back me up on this.

I was thinking along the (water) lines:I'm not seeing much adherence to the theme.

I've been riding every weekend, but have not gotten my thinking cap to work on the themes posted. I will say however, I'm really enjoying this thread. I love creative minds. Keep it up.
Bitchin' Veg! Way better than a photo any day.You bet Tom!

Riding to Kansas from Texas the other day I looked down and concluded this was evolution: Paper map; Garmin GPS III+; Garmin 276C.
Photgraphically not excellent - but it's the thought that counts.

Everyone was riding around looking for a theme, and it was right there on our tank bag and dash.
Evolution: The Wheel
Fred Flintstone invented the wheel,
the Orange County Chopper boys chromed the wheel.
I Be-leave this photo has nothing to do with evolution
Last weeks photo
Evolution of a Photo:Wow! I love all the colors and texture.
The bike could be a little more prominent, but it's still a postcard shot.
(I hope we get that kind of color in Pennsylvania. We're still a few weeks away from the good stuff in southern Pa.)
Same location, 6 days later on a cloudy late afternoon
