How can we get this thread organized into an actual photo contest where members can vote after a predetermined period of time? Maybe the sponsors would like to donate prizes to the winners as in previous years. The theme doesn't have to be weather... BTW I have the same Tourmaster bag as you and am very happy with it!

It is Summer in GA so that's easy. It is Hazy, Hot and Humid with a 30-40% chance of afternoon thundershowers. These shots were taken about 9 AM and you can already tell it is going to be a hot one.

Those old covered bridges are pretty cool...do they have a wooden floor over concrete or pavement? A question for you...can you see the pics I posted in this thread? I see all but one (shadow and moon) as red X's and am not sure if it's just my browser or if other members can see them...anybody? Cheers! '07 Speedmaster '09 Honda VFR Interceptor

The covered bridge in that photo has only a wooden floor (with two sets of timbers running the length over a cross laid bottom). Rode across each way on the right side timbers. They are slick! and the joints between the boards are interesting. On your post, I do not even see the red X's, all I see it the one shadow and moon shot. Thom I might be wrong, I sometimes am.

Maybe I need to try reposting with less photos in each post. I had 6 uploaded and they looked fine when I previewed it and then later disappeared.

I cant see your pictures for some reason. everyone else's display fine. Are you using a diffenrt format? file size maybe? Is it just me or are others having trouble seeing?

Maybe I'll try uploading them from another site and see if that works. I also don't understand why some people can see them and others, including myself, can't. Thanks for the input!
