I think the win is well deserved, the mix of musical instrument with modern music delivery system (speaker cone) in the background was very well thought out. The instrument did seem like an incomplete part thought which was odd.

Aye, you've got it all right

EDIT: They are made bamboo. Two different colours, in pairs.

Well, got mine in, been thinking about it all week and finally got a reasonably good idea. Took me a while to collect up all the bits and pieces I needed and then set them up. I'm quite pleased with my picture although some of you with calibrated screens may see it a bit too orange. Please tell me if it has gone beyond warm into orange.

Edit: “Wood competition”

Sorry, the image I posted was to huge (1000x130. Now is (771x1009), more rational!

Best regards.

That is really good



Also like the swing (or bench) and woods.


Now I need to find/produce something better than what is there

Ooh, you've given me an idea.

I have a PRS Although it would have to be done differently...
My brother has a wonderful red-orange mahogany Ibanez (varnished only), you can see all the detail in the wood. Wish I could use that for my picture...

This particular type of aircraft is so POWERFUL that you need fibre reinforced tape to keep your ribcage from exploding. It really feels like your internals are rattling around in your ribcage while your sternum struggles to hold it together. This happens when he uses his fourth (?) stage afterburner and points it at you.
So how well does the Pentax SR work under these circumstances?!
I think it melts the lens glass, burns the plastic and fries the electronics, so not very well

Yes - but what does the top look like?
You are not going to see the top when being bombed by it so you don't need to to identify it

I'd rather not know and be surprised when it comes rather than spending months wondering

I hope it is the next set of DA* lenses, the telephoto primes.
