      Is that between Sandia Park and Sandia Peak?

        Nice enough picture, but where's the bike?

        1. Today is Saturday, I'll start with a theme.
        2. Saturday to Thursday is submissions time. Everyone else can post one (and only one) picture that meets the theme.
        3. Friday is voting day. Vote for the picture you like the most. You can vote even if you didn't participate with a pic during the week. (voting closes at midnight, Pacific time zone).
        4. In case of a tie during the voting day, the first vote that breaks the tie the day after will decide the winner, unless of course one party wishes to concede to the other.
        5. Saturday, the winner of the week posts a new theme using an example picture.
        6. The example picture ALSO participates.
        7. Any bike can participate... not only GS's (as long as it was yours when the pic was taken)
        8. The date of the picture does not matter, or who took the pic. You can use new or old pics as long as you've got the bike in the pic (or as much of the bike as necessary for the theme) and they meet the week's theme.

          I wondered the same, but gave Eli the benefit of the doubt that the curvy blurry line at the bottom is the windscreen of the bike. Personally, I'd have gotten off the bike and backed up a bit. I'm ok with it. He got part of the bike, and the fauna. Anyone else wanna weigh in? I'll agree that it is borderline.

            Yep, I recognize the cut windshield of Eli69's.

            No worries. Maybe a tight spot and stepping back from the bike wasn't happening. Lots of pics have had just a part of the bike in them. More would be better for sure, but flora, check, fauna, check, bike (or part of it) check.

                I've gone through all my photos and only a couple of ones with wildflowers come to mind that aren't very good so it's Road Trip Time!!! Going to do my annual three national park loop tomorrow (400 miles) and hopefully come back with some ammunition. Hopefully the flowers cooperate. If not it'll be a great day anyway.

                  Definitely the windshield of The Ugly.

                          You can say "cripes" all you want.

                          Those that know you and have seen your bike might recognize that blur at the bottom of the picture, I just don't see anything that is obvious a part of a motorcycle.

                            Well I went and looked for some flowers but as I thought I was about a month too early. Got some greats shot though. Here's one from the archives.

                              And for us, it is about a month too late. April is Dogwood and Redbud trees, and May is Tulip trees and wild flowers.
                              But went out Tuesday, and all I found was green. Good weather today, will try again.

                              Very nice photo, Sandy...
