I love you wink wink! You have no idea how obsessed I am with planes (Peanut may have an idea from the USA thread!) so this weeks challenge is right up my alley. Thank you, I go to the airport to do some plane-spotting every week and now this week I have an excuse!

Great win too, that cake has me craving all sorts of sweet stuff now!

[Peanut]

Heh heh Kee!

There's no end of planes, trains and automobiles in this household...!

[blue4me]

Good topic winkwink! Just wondering if it is just planes, trains & automobiles only? Or can it be along the same sort of theme with helicopters, boats etc?

[winkwink]

Oh yay Kee, I was so worried everyone would find it boring. Peanut we also have an endless supply in our household and he knows them all by name

blue4me - I don't see why it can't be all modes of transportation, so helicopters and boats are fine

Hoping to jump back into weekly challenges with this theme May have to take the camera into work

[rbat]

I love going to the viewing area too Kee, it is a great spot. I have only taken my camera a couple of times though. Would love to see the shots you have taken down there.

No entries this week? Where is everyone?

This was the Adelaide sunset last night, gorgeous.

That's beautiful rbat! In stark contrast, here's mine from this morning ... in the rain. Gotta love Adelaide!

It seems on the week I thought this challenge was right up my alley, I've had no time to head to the airport purely for photo-taking (only to drop people off for flights) and no chance even when I have been near to get a decent shot. This is not a favourite at all but will have to do ... I've also loaded a couple of others I took while dropping off my cousin at the airport but they were rushed and boring shots.

Planes, Trains & Automobiles.

Maybe everyone else has spectacular shots they are waiting until the last minute to post - just to keep us guessing??

Ok have been stalking you all for ages determined to participate but have been slack. Not sure if this is how you link an image but here I go.
