The first Annual (?) TBR Photo Contest!

This year's theme: "Images Of Charlotte"

Looking for photos that reflect the greatness of the Queen City. Historical, artistic, abstract, tourism, or just your personal favorite spot. All photos taken anywhere with any camera are welcome! Please include a brief description of what the photo is and what it means to you, explaining a little about the photo for those of us who may not be familiar with the subject of your photo.

This has become a personal photo assignment for me lately. I have been walking and driving around Charlotte in my free time, photographing mostly buildings and reminising of my time spent in Chicago.

Everyone is encouraged and welcome to participate and have fun!

There are no prizes to be awarded. This is just for entertainment and educational value only. :)

Let me reiterate.. this is for pics of Charlotte, and pics you have taken yourself, professional or not, pics are pics. So far, the pic of Larry D is the only one that comes close to qualifying.

My pictures reflect the LACK of greatness in comparison to other cities. And the plaster cast is the body of a lesiban that I made while living in an apartment off Monroe Road. She was great.

Yes. And coincidentally, she was the last girl I did it with. Well, tried to do it with.

But,if she was a lesbian why did she want to do it with you? This sounds interesting. I want to hear the story on this.

I would imagine plaster can be pretty abrasive on the old hang down. No wonder you are gayer than the day is long.
