May 2014 Photo Contest!

Welcome campers to the May 2014 Photo Contest!

Wow after entering the Photo Contest for five years, I finally won one! I’m so honored! Photography and Airstreams seem to go hand in hand, there are many absolutely awesome photo submissions every month, but that’s what makes our contest so great!

As spring is here its time to charge up those batteries, stock that fridge, pack some clothes and hit the road on your 1st spring trips!

What is your mission? To enter as many cool photos as you like.

The fine print:

1). This months theme is Memorial Day, red, white, blue and silver!
2). The photos must contain an Airstream or part there of.
3). Have as much fun as aluminumly possible!

Now hit the road!

I understand the memorial Day theme, just wondering about the Red, White and Blue part. These colors are wonderful but us Canucks are more versed in Red and White - not so much the blue part....

Or you could snap a shot of an arctic fox eating one cherry and one blueberry pie. You get the idea :-)

Ok. Enough chit chat. Let's see some pics!!

Okay Steve - I did not have time to deal with the Pie - but will this do?
Got the Airstream, the colors, and the Arctic Fox. Darn, even had the cherry in his mouth but the little bugger ate it just as I posted this....

I just find it interesting how intent the ArcticFox is when he spots the shore birds and has the Airstream to hide in....



PLEASE BE AWARE IT IS NOT MY INTENT TO ENTER THIS IMAGE INTO THE CONTEST. I'M JUST PLAYING AROUND!

Hey Articfox,
Go ahead and enter your photo...I think it's great. 'Shows good creativity, nice composition, & impressive use of color.
It is an interesting shot.

What is a Canadian to Do?

Well, we do not have Memorial Day - but we have (Queen) Victoria Day - because the old bat decided to give us a day off.




Unlike ArcticFox, I think I'll sit this one out.

NO - NO, NO - Arctic Fox is in no way in this thing. After looking at the talent from last month, It's best for me to put my tail between my legs and go play in the snow....

As for Victoria Day - that's is about the time our Riders normally start to play (real) football and beat the hack out of the other teams in Western Canada......

Sorry could not resist....lol

I have had a few comments and compliments about my "workshop" in post 14. Oh, to dream. No, that is a shot taken from the manufacturing floor at Jackson Center.
