Picture perfect # Signs #

Signs

Picture Perfect (link)

Using a sepia medium for this photo I then framed the result in a firefox frame. I loved the way it turned out and I hope that you do too.

My photo taken in the beginning of our summer last year at a pro cars on the beach rally. To date the result for banning the cars on the beach has still not been announced. This heritage motor bike was at the demonstration and the owner like myself wants the council to allow vehicles on to this stretch of the beach, for many more years to come. Just as they have been doing for the last 80 years or so. This bike and others like it regularly gathered at this beach for races and it is very fondly remembered as an historical event from another time and era.

 

More photos of the rally can be seen in my multiply album here.

    Great shot Milli I guess I did not comment when I was by earlier. Sorry about that. We have areas here where you can take the car out on the beach as well. I used to take my big van out there and camp for the weekend. Nothing like it anywhere.
