AUGUST CONTEST THEME

the theme for the august contest will be Modern engineering. By modern engineering I mean from the industrial revolution onward.
examples would be planes,trains,cars,bridges,computer chips,etc. basically anything that show off 19-21st century engineering.
I plan on submisisons the beginning of august,prelims the first week and finals right after that.

I'm clueless, I thought, and then remembered the bike ride I went on on my birthday a couple of weeks back. Wasn't there machinery, I mused, and yes, there was.

with Global Warming as the theme. I've always believed that some of the best photography involves bearing witness.
