  Thomas, You did good, and love the art work. Do you need a loan for some furniture in the stereo room?

Don,

sorry this picture is not for dirty old men.... :-D

but to show my other side of photography....the speed community knows my photowork at the salt....but this are "mechanic at work" pictures....you got not very often a chance
to get some "art" in.....

So as I'm doing my art work with the oil pen....I also use my camera for "art photography"...here two example....this two I just print on canvas....but the photos I shoot in the 80's...so I used the original slides and scan them......there is NO manipulation by any kind of computer programs....just so as they are coming from the slides......1 to 1....

enjoy........

By the way, this art picture was for our Seldom Seen Jon, that he could recover from the background of the trophy pics.....I was not aware that maybe the speed community could be more interest in backgrounds than in speed stuff....

unfortunately it was too late to replace the pics with a version where duct tape covers the "critical" parts......sorry----- :roll: :-D

Pork Pie, you may need to retake and repost the picture of your art pictures... I think they are a little out of focus or blurry  :-D  :roll:

You know I am just kidding, hopefully this translates OK... the smileys are for if it doesn't
See you in August... still not certificate or timing tag from the WF,

LOL....Stainless, I can confirm, that you need no glasses... :-D :roll:

..blurry....by canvas.....and by purpose..
...that it looks like a painted picture.....same way as the last year Salt Talk (donation) canvas picture I brought from overseas....

Check today for a proper glass show case for the trophies and the record certification.....found the right style and will order them next week....

glass case?  I figured you would just buy a king size bed so you wouldn't have to share your pillow with them  :-D

Was for some days in Italy, visiting Ugo Fadini and Teresa in Padova.

went with Ugo & Teresa to the press day from Fabio Montani...close to Milano...our Italian 200 MPH Club (300 Chapter) member.

was for some visitor maybe a big surprise to see two of the famous 200 MPH Club hat to the same time....I also had my 202.8 mph trophy with me, "parked" the trophy close to Fabio's

Fabio and I had really fun....Ugo was so kind and used my camera to frame us.....

if everything goes well, Fabio will be back this year with his streamliner...now called Gus Gus 2.0

Here the picture with the two happy Club members

   Will that hat be something like the "Mormon" undergarments?
