Header Compitition Season 2 #51 "Moving Pictures"

The theme this week is by Sandy which is "Moving Pictures". Mac, Gail's Man, Lanny, Dave, Sandy and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT on Wednesday and start the voting after that.
 The first thing I thought of was the local drive-in theater. It isn't that picturesque. 
What about a photo out of a moving truck of an old barn. Yes, this was a drive-by photo.
So then I thought of photos that show motion. The lake gives me this view of some geese with a little ripple.
This is a duck moving across the lake. This is a blond Mallard Duck. A very odd color phase.
I really liked this Ruddy Duck for showing moving pictures.
But my header is this pair of Canada Geese flying, a classic moving picture.

Header Compition #50 "Flags"

The theme this week is by Dave which is "Flags". Mac, Gail's Man, Lanny, Dave, Sandy and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT on Wednesday and start the voting after that.



Okay now, flags are very patriotic so there should be quite the difference from the USA posts and the England posts. We will see.
Old Glory hangs high around these parts and here are some views.
I like to Watch a flag whip in the wind.
It has great movement.
My header is one of my favorite flag shots in a cloud filled sky.

The theme this week is by Lanny which is "Delicious". Mac, Gail's Man, Lanny, Dave, Sandy and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT on Wednesday and start the voting after that.


I was a little late today while I fixed a Delicious meal. I started with 5 Yellow Perch
and six Bluegill.
They were filleted.
I then wrapped in in foil and added Italian Breadcrumbs and Parmesan Cheese.
I cooked them on the grill along with garden tomatoes, zucchini and onions.
So the results is my header, a Delicious baked fish dinner.

Header Compitition Season 2 #48 "Big Bird"

The theme this week is by myself which is "Big Bird". Mac, Gail's Man, Lanny, Dave, Sandy and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT on Wednesday and start the voting after that.

The first thing I thought about is Sesame Street and the big yellow bird but I have no photos. So let us see what we will find.

I looked int a tree to see what I could find why an Eastern Towhee in the pine tree.
I continued to search a parking lot a seagull was on the strut.

Out to the lake a boating I did go with Canada Geese going to and fro.

And then I saw a large bird buiding a nest.
And another walking the shore.
So the biggest bird in my part of the world is the Great Blue Heron so on the header it did go.

Header Compition Season #2 #47 "Space Race"

The theme this week is by Gail's Man which is "Space Race". Mac, Gail's Man, Lanny, Dave, Sandy and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT on Wednesday and start the voting after that.



This took some deep thinking to get this one. The space race took place in Florida and I was never near the cape. So I'll race into space and show some space shots. Here is one while I was in space above the earth.
You can be in space in a small plane.
A blimp ride will take you slowly into space.
You can even take a helicopter, I don't want to take this one.
This is a cool one.
I thought of space reflected in a pond.
What I decided to show as the header is a jet high in the sky racing through space.

Header Compitition Season 2 #46 "Landfill"

The theme this week is by Mac which is "Landfill". Mac, Gail's Man, Lanny, Dave,Sandy and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. We now post anytime before 4 PM EDT on Wednesday and start the voting after that.

This was a tough one this week. It is hard to get access to a landfill in this area. I decided the only thing I could show was from outside the landfill. This is a built-up land fill where they bury the trash above the ground. Here are some shots from the outside of the fence.

There is no beauty in this place but right next to it is a Cleveland Metro Park with a lake. The trees hide the landfill at this time of year. This is what fills the land near the real landfill.
