Cool, but can someone explain to me, how is it there are two GTCU's going here, 479 and this one at 431?

maybe I should not post anything and let the life continue with the 479!

Congrats on the correct guess!

I was curious about it because of our location we have MEGA air force planes that rumble/earth quake our home frequently. So I googled the name. WOW! Check this out: http://www.davesbrain.ca/miscpix/blo...prucegoose.jpg

I screwed up, it should have been 481 not 431, my fault. You have 482, go for it......

Oh my! Those really do add the umph (or is it umf) to the scale. That little plane looks like a matchbox car!

#479 is over...we just got on another topic and started rambling. It is your turn next with #482.

Congrats!

You can go to advanced in the edit menu and change it to 481.

So where is 482?

This is a 2 week old GTCU the next one will be GTCU #491 (I think) and it will be hosted by Inked Photography.

You have to win the challenge before you can post the next one.

Well it appears to be the snout of a sea clam. Now I know what I can do with my out of focus shots.
