Caption This 43


Please caption this image
[Click here for instructions on how Caption This works]

London, ON, October 2007


I captured this image the same night as this one and this one. I've always wanted to try long night-time exposures beside a busy street, so when the fog rolled in, I knew it was time to play.

The question is, how would you name or caption this image?

Your turn: Come up with your best one, two, three or however many captions and share it/them in a comment. I'll announce the winner next Sunday.

Last week's image - Propane-powered van: The picture of the moron who strapped a propane tank to the back of his van garnered some incendiary responses. Sara almost read my thoughts with her excellent "Have Bomb, Will Travel." Interestingly, she participated with her colleagues, sharing a number of excellent suggestions along the way. Yes, that's a big hint! Please drop by her site and congratulate her.

Honorable mentions go to:
  • Jadedprimadonna: "This cutting edge hybrid model takes fuel efficiency to a whole new level!"
  • Tommie: "Have propane.....need grill"
  • Smiler: "Honey, where did you put that tank of gas?"
  • Joy T.: "If you can see the writing on this propane bottle...chances are you're about to explode."
  • Sara: "Bombing down the highway"
  • John: "Ahhh, traveling the open road! Isn't it a gas?"
Good luck with this week's caption. And thanks for your patience in waiting an extra couple of days for it to appear on the blog. It's been a busy time around here.

How sad is that? For last week's "Caption This", I did not even notice the propane tank on the back of the van! (No, I do not think that that is a normal thing to do!)

Anyway... I saw today's photo and thought... "Zzzzoooooommmmm!!!")

Have a great day, Carmi!

Stop that train, Superman!

Heidi, don't feel bad - I didn't notice the propane tank either...I guess when my ex said that I am totally oblivious - it was a true statement...

Today, I did notice the photo...

"It's a bird, it's a plane...no, it's Carmi's super fast camera technique!"

thanks carmi - my co-workers where a bit worried when on Monday morning (UK time) they didn't see the next installment of "caption this" I can see it's going to be a ritual Monday morning thing :)

BTW, how's your son doing?

The only thing I have is "go speed racer"....but maybe that is because what the kids say to me when they want to go fast.
