My great uncles are the ones in the plane. I wouldn't put it past
them the 5 that one of them is the photographer. They where all
engineers. Their Father John A Drake produced one of the first
extruded metal engine valves which is how the family got into Racing
to begin with. Miller used Drake parts in the original Miller engine
that became known as the Offy.

I love it. It's a perfect blend of contradiction. My pic of
the gallery.
Bob McCulloch - Boats
Well seen, well arranged, well exposed. I like the errant
ripple effect in the water.
Dan Mitchell - Android
Not enough people in the shot to make it the horror it is.
Tina Manley - Children with Pig, 2002
Reminds me of a trip to the island of Sumba. Too bad the pig
is cut off...or, that just might mean dinner :)
John Palcewski - Hand
I love it. But I've been so infected by these diatribes of
digital capture ruining photography that I might not be allowed to
respect it.
Yoram Gelman - Veranda in Decay
Nice range of tones, but I end at that. The trees are all the
decay I can see...maybe that's the point?
Christopher Strevens - The way.
Flip the title with the details and you have a haunting photo
essay.
Art Faul -
Perfect capture, and I would expect nothing less. But, I do
beg the question, what's the context? Again, spectacular control
of light, sensational color balance...there's even lines to show
how close to perfect the capture is...but it's completely empty
unless I frequent that station. Your film effort is commendable in
this age, but lost with a bargain-basement gradient background
that fails to follow the light angle of a wastefully careful drop
shadow. And why not just use Comic Sans?
Randy Little -
Very cool! This could even pass as modern. But, I'm
confused...did your uncle produce this, or was he the daredevil?
What happened to Mervin?
