As my winning pic from last month was taken in my garage, the theme for this month is "Garage". Interpret this as you like, maybe a photo of a garage, inside a garage, of cars being stored anywhere, or maybe you don't have a garage and store garage type things in a different space (eg tools in a cupboard). Or any other interpretation of "Garage" you can think of.

I'll judge not only on traditional photographic quality, but also the idea of the subject matter, composition, elements of fun or clever interpretation. So don't worry if you're just grabbing your phone to take a pic.


Rules:

The photos taken must be your own work and can be taken at anytime, but please only get out with your gear if you have safe opportunity etc.

The competition will run from the first to the last day of the month.

You can only submit one, and only one photo.

The winner from the previous month decides on the topic for the following month and judges it at the end of the month.

Entries and discussion on this single thread please.

All entrants acknowledge that they may indeed win and that their adherence to convention ensures everyone else's continued fun.

Photos entered can be as large as you like, although bear in mind if too large, it may not be possible to see the whole image on some screens. Links to larger versions are permissible.

Good pics so far. Although all very straight up Garage. 'Interpretations' are allowed!

Note that I'll judge it at 8pm on the final day of the month (a Sunday).

RESULTS!!! ... in the typical top 3 style ...

All were good pics, and a nice variety. I even enjoyed the (very clean) Jag!

WINNER = driver67
2nd = kman
3rd = DailyHack

Winner - I picked this due to the 'live' feeling captured in it, good angle, composition and crop.

2nd - Great pic and really nice balance of shades of grey.
kman said:
3rd - I'm mostly scared by all the plastic on the walls behind! Although not sure you'd get a wrapped body in the boot of a speedster.

Almost 10 years ago, before having a good time at the Revival, we visited a friend of mine in Cambridge. We had taken our MG J2 with us when we visited Wimpole House. Unfortunately I heard a strange noise in the front wheel. Said friend directed us to Houghton where you will find Beer of Houghton, a well known MG specialist.
