3 train cars. 3 automobiles. 3 roadways. ... with the third object each at an edge of a crop.

Hard to judge this week, but here goes:
Ltdave – I like the three engines and the three (well 3 and a half) windows, great sense of the power of the train vs. the power of the storm
M_Six – simple clean, great composition
dilorenzo1954 – good image, the three white jerseys draw the eye to the action, the ref in the back with the pink turban made me laugh :lol:
teekay – fun shot, looks like the type of touring that I’d like to do, where in the Kootenays is the teekay?
texkam – good timing on this one, three cars, three train cars heading towards three clumps of trees…
OldCrow – love the reflection Don, the three distinct groups of red, great scenic shot

Winners this week are:
#1 dilorenzo1954
#2 texkam
#3 M_Six

Take it away Ed! Thanks for participating.

Wowsers! Thanks darkslinger!
Congrats to texkam and M_Six as well.
I'll have a new challenge up by this evening.
BTW: The ref's name is Sheik Yerbuti (homage to Frank Zappa I guess... :p)
