i like these two, from my as-yet unwritten Members Rides post concerning a certain decapitation exercise :D
didn't get where i am today (single, unloved, flabby and working a dangerous job few other people want) by being conventional after all!

Image
SHINY....... and grimy :) (ooh, contrast!)
that pic didnt just happen by accident, BTW - that's bona fide composition there!

Image

Navy blue 'n' lensflare, now with added Westfield!
really wish i knew what was making that tyre turn milky white though o_O

(i'm also lazy & have stuff to finish typing for work once my dinner's settled so can't go gallivanting off over the vast magnetic fields inside my magic beige box for good pics - they probably don't exist anyway!)

edit - hrm, maybe it's just my screen, but both look far better at full size than in the thumbnails. Imageshack seems to have toned the shine down a bit!

pfft :D no just lack of time.
I think the sump will be coming off tomorrow ;)
Didn't take those shots as actual "make it shiny" exercises, thats just how they came out by accident.

........what, no one else with actual bling to flaunt?

well, sh*t..... :D it's not this old case of the combustion chamber in the piston crown vs in the valve head is it?

eh, i might be able to recover the rings from them anyway.

if it doesnt work i guess i'll just have to come and steal your head as well :D

ahem................ back to shineys *flashes a clean 2p piece* lookie!

My "shine" currently being a layer of dust enforced by revision keeping me indoors, I think I'll refrain from contributing pics to this thread. :lol:
