You see the strangest sights at the Olympic Road Race



Occasionally you see someone out of place:



Surely Bradley was on his bike at this time!!

Taken last Saturday on a lane in deepest Surrey where there were some cyclists out for the day.

 

Lol

 

1. I said to Anne "Don't stand there for too long or you may end up like the bloke behind you". On the sands at Crosby, Liverpool.

2. Crossing the road at Trafalgar Square.

3. Russian sailors on the 'Tall Ships' at Stavanger.

I award you a 'Gold' for this one.

 

Thanks, it actually really improved the day, I guess we were really approacable like that, everyone was smiling at us, random people came and asked for photos with us, we got straight into wembley without being searched. We asked a policeman for directions and he hopped in the car and took us there. Was a great day out.

 

Newbie question so preparing to be flamed here, but what constitutes an invalid photo in this thread?
I've read the competition rules so I assume that they've either not been taken this month or not taken by the poster but other than that, any pictures I've seen in this thread (or older version) seem to me to be "on theme".

 

There doesn't seem to be any real "restrictions" - other than pictures which would break the general forum posting rules regarding "decency" etc. - so you will probably see shots that are "Technically Valid" but get posted hear as they are "On Theme" but not intended for use as a Compo. Ebtry shot

 

Looking forward to the comp this month, I love seeing a great quality candid shot!

It's also something I'm trying hard to improve on, so I'm going to try hard to get an image submitted this month

Only have my iPhone at the moment so don't get many great shots but this has to be one of the best I've taken.

Hoping to get a low end DSLR soon, maybe the 1100D.
