October river contrails.



Bigger version.

^^^ That is really quite nice. I sort of wish the twig in the top left was the silhouette of a whole tree for scale.

Yeah, I agree. I guess the twig is proof I'm not in an airplane even if it doesn't really have a place in the image otherwise. The tree is huge and without a wide angle it didn't fit into any of the images I snapped. My second entry from the same shoot does a little better job with the foreground maybe.

I thought it was rugby until I saw the ball. What's with the mouth guards?

Thats what they do now. Next will be helmets I have overheard parents (mostly moms) saying they wish helmets were mandatory.

For soccer?.... I coached girls lax and thought maybe they should wear them, but never pushed or lobbied for it. Soccer if they play with a medicine ball, perhaps.

I saw a "news" special report about kids soccer and wearing these funky headband things. Lame.

[skiingislife]

Sick shots in here as usual.

Two things I do every October: autocross and ski the first snow.

Totally cool IMO and since I started this one, A-OK with me.

BTW guys, with still 5 days to go I think I'm going to be having some tough decisions.

[smmokan]

Transition... within transition.

[Vt-Freeheel]

65` and sunny so lets ride. October is the best month of riding for me, fit, dialed in, weight off,no skeeters, leaves and weeds gone so sightlines are long. Surface Whore spinning the wheel

natural and man made bridges on the rogue river

I grew up camping here every summer. Pretty cool to see the natural bridge in person. I know of at least two people that have fallen into the river and gone through the underground tunnel and survived.

Thanks for putting that up. Great memories.
