Post your photographs below to enter. Competition rules include a maximum of 2 photographs per active member, photographs must have been taken by the entrant and relate to the theme and the competition will close toward the end of March. The prize is to choose next month's theme.

I remembered I had some 20mm ball bearings and thought they'd make an interesting mirror:

Unfortunately 35 years in storage had taken the shine off them and they were a bit too small.

 :)    Big Mac ...
 
I follow your train of thought .. however I'm not so sure that this photo comp angle is what the guys are looking for here .. we shall see.
 
Nice to have two bikes almost the same .. but tell me .. do you also have two number plates ... or just the one .. with velcro  :rolleyes
 
Stay Safe  ;)    Polar Bear.

LOL@ 'Flashy thing' coming up again. Come on Frazer, let them have them, it's a bit of fun! (Apparently the flashy things only lasted a little while, then were stopped, but some have managed to hang on to theirs)

Fazerider, I've had a mad couple of weeks photography wise, but I have a few days left! ;-)

The flashy thing is not part of the competition anymore "The prize is to choose next month's theme." That said I have thought of a way to do this fairly easily and will try it out when I get a chance.

Doh!  Choosing next months theme is harder than finding a photo that stands a chance of winning.  I only enter to try and get a flashy thing next to my name, it has more kudos than FRPS after a name......
