Tonight, I upload F&SM picture number 2400 - another landmark.

S&S RR · July 31, 2016, 08:25:21 PM

Before we move on - I thought I would post one of the unedited photographs just for some fun. When I took the photographs of the back sides of the structures (or the dark sides for the Pink Floyd fans) I often have to crop out my arms, or one of our forum friends fingers, or someone watching to make sure nothing got hurt. Take a good look at the background in this photograph.

The title for this photograph is do you think we were being watched?

The caption should read "How did I let Tommy talk me into this?"

Actually, Tommy kept saying "I can't believe George is letting you do this".

I obviously felt George's presents and didn't hold the camera still for this one - bit bucket.
