July 07 Photo Contest
Hi everyone.
Ok, after some though, the theme for the July photo contest will be 'WATER'. Water must be, along with an Airstream, a focal point of the picture.
Extra points will be given if:
1) . . . the picture excludes other man-made objects
2) . . . the picture is accented by a complex array of color
3) . . . the picture has an allurement about it that would draw a potential buyer to Airstream.
Most generally, pictures with the Airstream placed far in the background will not be rated as high as those with the Airstream in a more predominate place.
Please do not hesitate to use unusual perspectives of the more attractive features of our beloved Airstream.
Fire is not considered a man -made object.
A road is considered a man-made object, even if it is not paved.
Good luck!!

Well, it's not likely to win any awards, but here's a pic from our last trip. The water is Navajo Lake in NW New Mexico.

Hey Roadschooler,
Just head way north for you to the Tupper Lake area in the Adirondack park.
Hard to beat! 355 sites, 90% are prime waterfront.. but shhh! don't tell anyone! Oh wait... did you mean that great dump station?

Yes I meant the campsite  .
Going to have to figure a way to get my family there sometime. I have never been that far west in Canada. My Mother is a "Newfie" so my travels have only involved the eastern part of Canada. Big road trips when I was a kid, only we did it in a VW bus  .
I went to your website, the place is beautiful!

Eastern Canada
Or, I should say the VERY Eastern part . I'm sure you hadn't considered yourself very West.

Bon Secure Bay
Bon Secure Bay, off Mobile Bay near Gulf Shores, Alabama, Spring 1997. Have submitted this once before, but the water topic is better suited for this shot. (Minolta Maxxum 7000, Kodak Ektar 25, Kodak Paper, HP ScanJet 4C.)

Help!!! With pictures like these, we gotta have a special prize: Any vendors out there interested in these pictures - willing to encourage more of the same with a prize? Who knows, maybe the winner would let the vendor use the picture for commercial use . . . just a thought.

Great shot, specially since the lake is, what, 15 feet below normal levels? Thank goodness we are getting rain this week.
