    Thanks to everyone who submitted their pic and some personal stories on a difficult theme and to Redman for his kind and diplomatic remarks.

    For me, the submission by Dorkburger narrowly edges the pics and stories from Marvin and Trevor. Kerrfunks pic is a great one with its riot of colours and shapes. Its a natural to be made into a jigsaw puzzle and would be a perfect gift for Rusty and Barry.

        ALL great pictures this week. And a really cool thanks to DaveR for thinking of it. My vote HAS to go with Burque this week. That shot should be in a magazine or something...

          I'm voting for Burque because he got the impossible photograph. I've been there. A Killer whale right out of the water right beside the ship { scared the snot out of me } a giant manta breaching beside me not ten feet away in a zodiac. It happens so fast there is no way to prepare..... Great shot !

            I guess I'm going to go with BURQUE this week. Beautiful combination of luck and skill!

            This group of pictures really represents the best that GSR has to offer; Good times with friends and family, new and old. Sandy that was a nice ride/lunch that day in 2012. I'd like to have a copy of that to print, if I may.

              So, so many good pictures and stories this week. I could pick so many...

              But I must go with Dorkburger. The picture not only meets the theme, it is a really well done photo.

              It would make a great magazine add, "It's about family. SUZUKI!"

                As I understand, the theme was "favorite photo". I think every submission filled that.

                As far as the "family" aspect is concerned, there were at least two others that showed families.
                One of them even included ONLY Suzuki motorcycles.

                Yeah, not exactly "magazine add [sic]" quality, but the theme was "favorite", not "most-printable".

                I have been watching this thread for a while, I can see that I will never have a photo worth submitting. Carry on.

                  Funny you should chime in. I was just thinking about your signature line earlier today wondering who it was that had that. LOL

                    You might. And even if you don't, it's fun, and certainly nobody will judge you for entering. It's fun.

                        Hey, if you have anything that fits the weekly subject-category-theme sometime, give it a try.

                          I think this weeks theme has more to do with the story than the actual picture so with that in mind I have to go with Trevor's. Burque's shot is great and probably one of the best photos since we started and the family shots are really cool and make for great memories but the sh!t eating grin on those two guys kind of says it all.
