If it's real Man Flu (and of course it is!), it won't be gone by tomorrow, so it'll have to be a shot of malt.
A good drink always doubles up!
Thought I`d use one of my Paralympian shots and play a bit.
Ali Jawad was such a nice bloke to talk to yesterday. Robbed of a silver medal by some cruel judging decisions he was given extra chances not once but twice when his appeals were successful. Unfortunately on the third attempt he did not quite make it. Even more tragically he had to pull out of Beijing Olympics when tipped to medal when he became ill and was later diagnosed with Crohn`s Disease. Didn`t give up and fought through it to powerlift in the 56kg class and should have got at least silver but for those decisions.

The background stories of the Paralympians are awe inspiring. An example to us all.
At least I'm not the first this week!
I'm going 'architectural' this week, with the side elevation of my local SeaCity Museum.

Resisting any post process boosting to concentrate on retaining the capture in atmosphere, I'm in with a summer's evening shot "Maize Haze"

Hi peeps
I have been about fully for a while but thought would make more effort to join in. Fortunately I was working near the Royal Albert hall when they were filming this period drama - Mr Selfridge to hit your tv screens next year, apparently- so I grabbed the camera and took some shots

This is another shot (back lit Willow Herb) that was in my pot this week and converted to B&W for consideration.

I just put up the poll for this competition (see Entries thread), can someone please add a bit of 'space' between the pictures?
Thanks.

Thanks Mick. I'll try to remember it next time.
