"PAIRINGS" -- HAF Photo Challenge Poll

[Biggus Dickus]

Have we ever had two winners before?

This is so exciting. Prepare the swooning couch!

Make 'em fight it out with selfie-sticks?

Or telephoto lenses at dawn.

Hermes,

I would be proud to be your second in said duel...

I think the Lark is bashful and doesn't want to claim their 1st Place Sexy Knitted Mid-Riff Prize

Yes, and I also asked about the horse sculptures, but no reply. In fact, nobody else has given us any background information at all on their photos.

I'm sorry Hermes...I forgot to do the background stuff. Please forgive me

Here you go!

This is a shot of the Henry Ford Manor and Estate located in Dearborn, MI where I live. Took the shot from across the river while out on my bike.

This shot was taken inside the Cathedral de Comayagua in Honduras looking out towards the courtyard...I took that picture in the evening as the sun was beginning to set.

This picture was also taken in the city of Comayagua in Honduras. Picture of my wife and mother-in law waling back to my mother-in laws house after a morning trip to the local market. I really like this photograph, it's one of a dozen or so that I snapped while they were walking in front of me that morning. I like the similarity in they way they walked, the angle of their heads, even the way they swing their arms.
Almost as if the same person walking alongside their future or past self

Decoration we had on a coffee table in our house taken from above. (I got yelled at for standing on the table to take the shot)
The white ceramic doves belonged to my mother...and the vase was a gift I bought for my wife that was made by a local artist in Detroit.

24
This is a picture of two of my classical guitars that I have hanging against a Spanish styed door in our house. ( I rushed the picture, should have taken during the morning when the light was better. Tried to use a flash, but it didn't turn out that good)
