Thanks Doug
Good luck all.

Hey Cuppa, you forgetting something with your entries? ;)

Hey Cuppa, you forgetting something with your entries? ;)

Stewtharama! Whaddaya think I am, some sort of example setter? The first time ever I think to myself "the pics speak for themselves" some smart ass picks me up on it! LOL.

Nah, I just thought given the the topic adding any extra info like location was probably superfluous. However if you really wanna know, both are the gorgeous MrsTea, eating an apple in a chest deep rock hole at the upper level of Edith Falls, NT, & the other decending Big Red on the edge of the Simpson Desert.

And now you've probably encouraged me to break this rule * Comments pertinent to entries are encouraged, but please do not use this thread to engage in banter*.

I'll have to ask MrsTea to give me a good spanking whilst re-iterating what a naughty boy I am!

Last season Licola trip, we had good snow...

[BigRAWesty]

Photo 1 of... well not much motion lol..
This was our south end club run..
We had about 5 tag along vehicles on a single trip, from memory none had done sand driving or vary little and Darren the sorta guy he is got em in the convoy..
One got stuck on the razor back at buggy park (the bonnet that is seen behind) so I came back up the dune but backed off to early and plonked ontop..
Meanwhile...
Darren had gotten himself stuck in the exact same situation one dune over..
So it was a quick lesson on snatch recoveries and winch recoveroes for all the newbies..
And a great lesson / demonstration on how it can all go to shoit quickly..
Cheers

Keep River N T from the western side as the tides comes in. It take 2 hours for the tide to come in and about 10 hours to go out.

The glory this month goes to gubigfish in 1st place with 15 votes for his mesmerising night sky shot from Karijini NP. It really shows the motion of our planet.

We had a number of other great captures of motion who would have tied in 4th place .......... if we had a fourth place on our virtual podium.

Thanks everybody who sent in an entry.

Well done all, some beaut entries. Cuppa well done too this is a great thread. Looking forward to gubigfish's upcoming subject decision.

[VK2FMIA]

Congats to gubigfish, great photo showing that even when you are standing still you are a "Moving Object". Cuppa`s pic of a moving torch light was definitely thinking outside the box & FNQGU`s images of motion were great. My fav was the Prado launching off the sand dune. Well done all.
