Title: HAF Photo Challenge: Nostalgia
Post by: Recusant on April 09, 2019, 06:09:21 PM
xSilverPhinx has chosen the theme for our new photo challenge and as the title of this thread will tell you, it's "Nostalgia." As usual, members are encouraged to feel free to interpret the theme however they will, and exercise their creativity. Scrabble through your image archives (photos you've previously taken) and/or get out there and shoot some great new photos!

Up to five images will be accepted from each member, and entries will be open for the next two to three weeks, depending on response. Of course I intend to give some warning before closing. Please send them to me preferably via PM, or via the email address in my profile: recusantathaf |at| gmail.com. Cheers!  :)

That is a good theme and we should get lots of entries. I will just have to get myself into nostalgia mode—I'm usually pretty unsentimental.

Sacrifice... how many pounds of flesh does the photo contest require?

:notsure: Depends. I posit that the photo challenge demands the sacrifice of as many pounds as one can eat at a BBQ.  :smilenod:

I've had Brazilian barbecue once. You can eat a lot of meat at a Brazilian barbecue. It's delicious. I'm not prepared to sacrifice quite so much...

Ok, if you're not willing to sacrifice several pounds of flesh we could settle for something else. You could say the ultimate truth: Brazilian BBQ is superior to Argentinian BBQ three times. To an Argentinian.  :sidesmile:

Post by: jumbojak on April 30, 2019, 03:46:01 AM
I've never had Argentinian barbecue before, so I cannot comment on it being the Ultimate Truth. I will say that I don't consider Brazilian barbecue to be real barbecue...

When I was a kid we had those. It was fun trying to rewind them with a pencil. Don't ask why we would spend a very long time trying to do that, we just did. :grin:

I still remember the blue Sony walkman I got for my 8th or 9th birthday. :sad sigh:

If pressed I could do something within 24 hours but what is this "deadline" of which you speak?

Welp, unless somebody says they need a bit more time, I'll be closing entries in a couple of days. Fair warning.  ;)

If there is someone who needs more time but didn't speak up they will look back upon the day the deadline closed with nostalgia.  :violin:
