All ready to go. Is there anyone else or has the Thunderdome gone off for summer vacation?
I'm an old film guy just playing catchup in this digital world. Help me out.

I've been against both of them, so I don't care.

no one has really participated in this - we need a winner to pick the next theme. Unless exkalibur wants to count his picture. :)

What's the point really? No one even comes into the Thunderdome anymore so we wouldn't hardly get any votes. And Skippy hasn't been very active either.

I think Skippy is on a trip and will be back to full activity in the next week or so. 

And I think the only reason the "action" here is down, is that everyone got busy as I have not seen a lot of action form the same people in a while.

I think you two should go for it.  I will vote!

I will vote too.  Been really busy here...kids sports are starting and getting ready for them to go to school.  I watch the forums daily via news feed but have't been able to actively participate in much.

I agree with Wintergon.  Busy doesn't begin to describe the goings-on around here right now.
I am just about *this* close to opening up my new business and I have been running around getting everything together so free time to just go out and shoot has been nil.
I am taking a trip this weekend to an air show but its a 3 hour drive one way. LONG day.  That will be my big photo op for the next few weeks I'm afraid.

That said: if anyone has an air show THIS weekend in their area, or has any interesting aircraft to shoot nearby and will be going to it: I can do a challenge for airplane shots if they want. 
The air show I am going to will be on Saturday (weather permitting) so if anyone wants to give it a shot...buzz me.  ;D
Take your camera with you dammit. You can't take your next "best photo" if your camera is sitting at home in the bag, now can you?

I wanted to hit an airshow either this weekend or next but kid sports are now in full swing...3 kids in 3 different directions :)

Yes I am away with very limited access.

Anyone that wants to do a challenge just needs to find someone and agree on a topic. Then pick a date to end. I will be back in the loop on Sun or Monday.

Oh yea...been there done that. Life as you know it is on hold for quite a while.  That said: I miss those days. I used to love going to watch the kids play baseball and I tried to never miss a game if I could help it.
Just curious though: might you make it to an airshow next weekend? I could hold back one photo from this weekend and throw it at you for next week.  If not, thats ok too. The kids games are priority #1.

I think next weekend is out too unfortunately.  I don't think the Mrs. will do a 4 hour drive to Cleveland for just an over night.
