cheers guys! much emotions

knee is actually strained. I realized that when I fell, my knee took all my weight while the joint took a different direction of the intended bio-design. Rest of extremities are ok, I will however be at 50% agility today, so I will just plant myself over two cameras. The other two by video support I was bringing anyway.

Just watch yourself .... all the damage you do to yourself when you're young returns to haunt you when you get older .(just personal experience , hopefully YMMV)

Sone light reading for you!

Hope the knee heals up. My joints are terrible if I land in them from even a moderate height these days.

I've been lucky and only slipped on some wet rocks down by the river once. I landed on one elbow as I held the camera up in the air to protect it.
Your accident was much more serious and I hope you recover your body (and your pride) quickly.

Cheers

Hugh

Knee fortunately got better during the day, I was able to perform in terms of agility!

Cheers to all our aching joints!

Based on the scale of the building I’m going to say fake.

I must ask, where are these pictures taken? I would love to possibly drive this road. Thanks.

At the top of the steps leading up to the Capitiolne Hill in Rome are the stautes of Castor and Pollox. This is a close up of Castor (at least I think it's Castor)

Real. If it was fake I don't believe you'd put the building right in the corner.

where was this photo in the smoke contest??

After taking a load of shots I decided to submit the vaping smoke photo as I felt it was the better one, even though I first did it as an accident

Exactly what I thought !

You two think it's better? I'm not very good at judging my own stuff

Here's one from the other day - I had only my trusty RX100 tossed in the topbox of my bike...

I am not too sure if its "better" but definitely an awesome shot. I like the singularity of your submission. Really cool.

Ps. Is that the Moon or Mars?

That’s clearly moon if you zoom the image ;-)

Thank you, just a happy accident - the smaller candle above was what I planned originally.

Yes, it's the moon

This is very well lit to capture the smoke and still control the highlights Hugh but is there a reason for cutting off the base of the candle holder?

I love the candle one. I had an idea for something similar but never had a chance to execute so sat out the challenge.
