July Photo Competition - Discussion Thread

[cirks]

Two things made me decide on this month's theme. I've always been fascinated by the mechanical world but also like the ability we have to keep and look back on history of people by way of photography. So, this month's theme is GENERATION. You can interpret it any way you like whether 'generating power', 'people and generations' or others.

Hope you have fun - hopefully all new photos this month.

Happy to comment but not judge during the month.

perhaps I should add "Generating laughter" to the possible intepretations of the theme

I presume lack of entries means all the PH snappers are busy creating images for this months competition? I'm still trying to come up with something inspiring...

[cirks]

Australian smoke machines

My interpretation of generation so far:

Welcome! Fits the theme fine Better than some interpretations of 'wind generation' that I think some might consider entering

Generating heat, light and of course a new subframe for the car

Not the best of pictures... (because I took them!) but both display my favourite generations in the development of two fantastic cars

I think the wonkyness of that Ford badge kind of ends any argument about build quality

[miniman]

Nothing brilliant about the technique but this one is quite important to me for obvious reasons.

It was either get the badge on the wonk or the whole car, my excuse is its 45 years old, its got "character"
