I've fallen in love with a photograph

Well, back by popular request, it's another...

Photo Challenge.

Details: http://www.eastwick.fsnet.co.uk/photo2.html

Please pass on to anyone else you think might be interested.

You've got two months to faff, find your camera, get it working, take some photos, and shove 'em on a web page somewhere. If anyone is vaguely interested, slightly forgetful, or would for some other reason like me to prod them with sticks intermittently to make them take pictures, please leave a comment below.

surje, if you're still up for suggesting some ideas for displaying/formatting the entries, please shout up. There should, I'd imagine, be less of a requirement to compare different people's photos directly this time, but I'd still be interested to hear if you have any thoughts on how they should be displayed.

And yes, I know some people haven't received their prizes from the last one. This is because I'm faintly crap, and should be resolved in the moderately immediate future. Unless you're nalsa, in which case it won't because you never told me your address :)

Your current theme covers one of my favourite photographs, which was taken by the great O Winston Link. Unfortunately, the web copies I've found don't really do I justice, but I found Hot Shot Eastbound, Iaeger.

I think this may be the only photograph to be parodied on The Simpsons. :)

"Hot Shot Eastbound, Iaeger" is excellent. I was reminded of this kind of think when driving along the A34 the other day - from a flyover you can see, next to each other and running in parallel, a canal, rail-line and road.

Of course, stopping and taking a photo on a flyover on the A34 will be more easily said than done...

One has to suffer for one's art :)

I'd not seen that photo before Zandev posted it, but I like it a lot, too.

Suffer - yes. Get mown down by artic - not so tempting ;-)

Tell you what - let's make a plan of it. You drive, break down, stick on the "park anywhere lights", block the traffic, smile sweetly at irate drivers while shugging your shoulders; then while we wait for the AA to arrive I'll snap away.
