I would guess anything goes.

You are the Photographer...I would think the most unexpected place for an SLK would be what he is looking for.?

This should be fun to see! LOL

Pictures of SLK at places that we don't usually SLKs at or associate with SLKs. Pretty much anything goes.

I would guess since we have this thread for next months pictures...??? it is ok to go ahead and post next months pic of your car in any unexpected location if you already have one ready to be posted.

Starting Jan the picture thread post will be posted on the 1st day of the month.

Cool, I couldn't get a picture for the last one because Hawaii doesn't have a fall season

Unexpected Locations, now that I can do!

It's for fun, so don't have to be really strict.
I'm okay with it, as it'll give me some ideas.

I got an Idea for you MarkR171 in Hawaii....

Put two long surf boards under your wheels and get a pic of your car on one of those big waves!!!! ROFLOL You can hang ten over your front bumper!

Oh yeah, No photoshop allowed.

My part of Texas was not very colorful for last months pic either...Don't let the Topic deter you from entering. Post what you have from where you are at.

I have a few that would fit in that bracket.

How you should do it is have a posting thread this. and then move it to an official vote thread with a list of the images, photographer and a number to vote by on the 10th. but at least the vote thread should contain the images.


here one I like.. but cannot submit as it wasn't too recent obviously.

Second that nomination. Let's give it a try.

Easty, go ahead and submit the pix. It's for fun and enjoyment. Don't have to be strict. The votes will decide.
