Thanks to the urban dictionary we all get caught out from time to time

Back on topic still scratching my head on this one, have one or two ideas but not sure how feasible they are.

I didn't know the expression; not too au fait with urban speak.

I have two ideas, one of them being a still life. Where do I find a six axle dumper truck for it?
It'll never 'fit' in my camera, so it'll have to be a panoramic shot to start with!

Isn't "Monkey" cockney slang for a sum of money?.......I aint commenting on Beavers....lol!!!

Still trying to get time to take the shot for the theme, my Landlord (the farmer) has got lots of vehicles I can shoot, but I'm just waiting for the right lighting moment......

Does it have to be something that transports humans? Or can it be something that transports something else?

I know people carry things (or children), thus transporting them from A to B and beyond, but I don’t want them.

PS It may be a good idea to avoid photographing (other people's) license plates, or, if you can't avoid them, to blank them out.

Chris, I thought I'd been clear enough!

Usual complaint: the forum seems to have died again.

Mark, are you still blushing?

Reinardina, think that the cold may have an effect on who enters this week as transport requires one to go outside and take a pic.
I have one in the bag (however it s taken for another subject) but will be looking to get another pic today/tomorrow more transport related.
Still plenty of time.

Sorry I have been away overnight to no posts from me for a while...is that why the forum went quiet????? No entry from me this or next weekend due to my going on holiday. Good luck everyone will catch up with entries/winners when I get back.

I couldn't get any six axle lorries to stop for longer than a red light lasted; too short for me to take a picture. And too dangerous too, if I wanted to circle the object of my desire to get the right angle.

So, plan B was put into operation, which required no suffering on my part. On the contrary! I could circle the objects of my desire at leisure and came home with a bag of shots. It was very good hunting! Got two shots, that I can't choose between.

Maybe it'll be a two person Comp Jeff, wouldn't that be interesting? To see where the votes fall?

Even though, in most cases, you have to go outside for a transport picture, almost everybody travels somewhere, if only to the shops. And for this comp a picture from the inside of a bus/car/train is valid. Or something shot through the window of said car/train/bus. As long as it contains (part of) something that is used to feryy people/animals/goods around.

Have a good time Chris!
I was going to say you're lucky to be away in this weather, but that would not be the case, if I were going. I love this type of cold-ish clear sunny winter weather!
