Hi Silke,

Strong and abstract posting for todays (or actually tomorrows) theme. Making a guess: i'd say the chome front of a truck??? But i could be way off.

Best regards,

Edwin

I like the repetition pattern and POV here Silke very much,
and also even more so, the reflections off f each piece of this grill. Which is what it looks like to me?
A grill from a Mack Truck?

Great theme entry!

First thought was the grill of a very tall car. Anyway, I'm impressed by the way you kept the lens from distorting your image. Adding your reflection is a nice touch. Not a clue, will be waiting for the answer to the mystery. Your selection transportation is a clue, but not working for me.

Hi Silke,

Great image. I guess it is the chrome radiator panel of a truck, maybe a vintage fire truck? Also could it be a self-portrait?

Any event, a great image and a great contribution to the theme.

Well done and TFS,

John

hi silke, neat shot, due to the damage on it and the fact that i am in the automotive industry i am going to say this is a front grill for either an old truck,car or maybe a rig?????
nice shot,

I see you!! Nice contribution Silke! LOVE that chrome, on anything! Really nice clarity here too! I say it is the GRILL to an old firetruck..DID I WIN??? Possibly an old Ford firetruck 1949!

Hi Silke,
The repetition theme is good for a birthday! I like to believe that the years pass in your life with as much brightness and glare that there is on this splendid capture! Very good details and fine reflection of the lady of a lens!
Happy birthday dear friend!

I was sure it's an old Chrome but on with model.... No chance... I was alway's more axed on electronic technologic and fiction then cars... But it's not a reason... Be sure y eyes catch the chrome! Old mechanics have often very great details opportunitys!

I spot yourself too... A touch of grean... That was easy!
Nice presentation!

Hi Ladies-in-Red,

This seems to me like the front of a classic car, but seeing the hight it must be a truck. The chrome is defenitely older, a radiator?
I would not know for sure, but that is the impresssion it gives me. Lovely repetition (also from those ladies).

The closest I can come to identification, Silke is that it is the grill of a car. An older model car, but that is all I would know. I do see you there with your red shirt and watch. Great choice of framing and definitely perfect for the theme. Happy Birthday.
Warm Regards

Hello Silke,

What a great addition! I think it is probably the radiator grill from a car!
It is sharp and detailed and I particularly like your presentation!

I have just seen Linda's post so I now know that it is your birthday. I know you shouldn't ask a lady her age so, many happy returns, my friend! I hope you have a fabulous day!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Lotl,
Almost forgot to look at your repetition posting, sorry. Th eshining front of a classic car is a nice object for the theme (what car? No clue! :-) If it was an aircraft I would have known) Anyway a fine sharp image and it fits perfect to the theme!

Has to be the grille of that 'Olds' :). Repetitions on repetitions Silke and well captured. Lovely framing and the subject most suitable for the theme. Oh bother, it wasnt the 'Olds'. TFS,

beautiful image. looks like the front end of some really retro car or something.

i like how you composed it so it's hard to tell what it is, but yet maintain the aesthetics of the lines and the colours.

beautiful.

Hello Silke


Beautiful close of the chrome of this old car.
I think to be a car of firemen. Right!
I like the repetition and still more of the presented car
in the other place.
Congratulations for the look and inclusion to the theme.
Greetings!
