Photo theme #247

Postby billz » Sat Jul 10, 2010 11:09 pm

The suggestion for this week's theme came quite awhile back from kimi_boo. The theme is t-shirts.

Image

Sorry it took so long to get to this one kimi. It should be fun, and if you see this I hope you get a chance to play.

Bill

The fine print:
Everyone is invited to participate.
Because the purpose of the weekly theme is to get us more familiar with our cameras and to sharpen our photographic skills, entries should be taken during the week of the theme.
Photoshopping is allowed.
Be creative and have fun!

No funny saying on his shirt, but a fun shirt and shorts. The guy with his arms crossed - not the guy with the big nose.

If he was a flamingo, I'd say 'too much shrimp'. :biggrin:

Rusty - I like the shirt ... but the 'tan' is pretty scary.

That's not just "a shirt". He must have gone to a custom shirt store where they will put any photo on a shirt ... that is his car. Displayed right outside the tent where I shot him.

When I was in college there was a product called Man Tan. You were supposed to slather it all over your body, wait ten minuted and then take a shower. Two of my friends wanted to "look good" for Spring Break so they got some and figured, if the directions said "ten minutes", a half hour should be better. Yeah, it's a guy thing. They came out looking just like this guy ... all over! They were so embarrassed they cancelled the trip to Panama City :doh:

My family [kids and grandkids] made this tee shirt for me for my 60th birthday - 7 years ago.
