Didn't have long today to shoot for the POTN World Photo Day theme (candids) and grab lunch and get a haircut and buy some grub supplies but managed to do it all in 75 minutes or so.

It does seem that I am a vampire tho'. Where am I in the first 'To Let' image? The window shows full reflection behind me but I am not to be seen, I am invisible, and I was shooting right in front of it. Oh well ... do they have veggie vampires?

Second shot is my usual 'Oh, I do likee crumbly textures and some colour' shot. Third is a mild Homage to Maestro Twitch with my over bold PP-ing efforts ;)

Not yet my dear ... ain't arrived yet. Here Monday apparently.

I may post a spoof 'Where is the brown truck and why isn't my new 30D baby here yet?' thread in order to get some of our Tricyclic fuelled 'instant gratification' friends overexcited :lol: :lol:

I think that would bve halarious, Take some shots of the truck pulling up and him walking up your path and than the big finish......You taking posesion of the package and kicking your shoes off in a fit of joy! LOL

My mind must be in the toilet, everytime I look at the first shot I read something else ;) Oh well, from the title I'd thought you'd gotten onto the tilt shift bandwagon and we were going to see a few weeks of "look, no reflection! Look, DOF that makes no sense at all! Look, blah!" and boy am I relieved :lol:

I think your vampire shot could use a bit more exposure but then I've heard bad things about when vampires become overexposed to natural light sources. Very touchy stuff working with the undead.

The super punchy parking meter I'm really digging, but then you knew that already. Second is good, but needs some zing IMO
