November 2013 Photo Contest

The November 2013 Photo contest is a combination photo/caption contest. Who can apply the best caption to a photograph that contains at least one Airstream.

To open this up to contributions from those who prefer adding captions rather than taking the photos, members are encouraged to add caption to photos that others post. Feel free to rewrite a caption for a photo already posted. We might end up with many captions for the same photograph.

The winner will be the member who contributes the best caption - not the best photograph.

If you have a photo that you think would be a great subject - but cannot come up with a good caption, please post as fodder for others.

Winner will receive the coveted Yellow Pencil Trophy...



Photos that work best are ones that tell a story. However the creative caption artist doesn't always pick the same story that the photographer intended.

Use your creativity...and let's get started. I'll add one photo to start, with an obvious caption...



Caption: Caution - Objects are closer then they appear

Hi,

Is this just a separation or are we soon to be divorced?

Great theme Max, and what a start.

I've always thought that the folks here on the forums are some of the most creative folks on the planet. Many times I have found myself laughing out loud over some of the posts.

These first 5 posts just proved it!!!!!

Dang I love this place.

John

This photo accompanied a recent ad on Craig's List in which the seller claims that it is a rare, one of a kind, Airstream called a "Streamliner". This 2007 "Streamliner" was the home to a troupe of circus performers who were said to be vertically challenged. To say the least, it may be a hard sell as the new owner must "fit" into a niche and select group of buyers. It is rumored to be going for a very "low", "low" price. Although others say that it may be a bank foreclosure and is being marketed as a "short" sale. If you are interested please contact the owner as there is only a "small window" of opportunity to bring this one home to the "little lady".

Now I know what a shell off restoration project really looks like.
