    Thanks to Gina for running Salon 71.

    I wouild like to see pictures on the subject of:

    HIDEAWAY

    Any interpretation welcome on the subject of somewhere calm, private,
    and personal. It could be your's, a friend's, or belong to an unknown person or even an animal!

    Closing time 12.00 midday on 30th September. Start looking and enjoy.

    Roger

    Here are the rules:

    1) All photographs are to be uploaded to the photo gallery at http://dpnow.com/galleries/, they can be put in members own gallery if they wish. The resulting link generated for the photo will then be pasted into the next available space in the Salon thread. Please keep photos to a maximum of 800 pixels wide so people can see the whole image without scrolling.

    2) One entry per user ID only please, which must be the personal work of the entrant.

    3) Entries should be "in line" within the thread (not as links to an image held somewhere else.)

    4) Comments only on entries are welcome within the salon thread itself.

    5) After the close the curator will indicate a winner and a couple of runners up.

    6) The curators decision is final.

    7) Winners should be offered first refusal to choose the next theme and curate the next salon.

    8 ) If the winner is unable to curate the next salon the current curator may offer that "honour" to any willing volunteer, possibly the entrant in second or third place.

    9) These rules are to be copied and pasted with the new theme by the curator at the top of the new salon thread with a finish date and time.

    10) As with all photos posted on DPNow,copyright remains the photographer and DPNow will not use them without permission.

    The Prize is the choice of either CF 8GB Ultimate or a SDHC 8GB Class 6 memory card.

        I tried to post this image yesterday, but it came out all blotchy for some reason! Hopefully it's working properly now.

        If I want to escape the stresses and strains of life, this is where I go! To the beach at dawn. The more remote from civilisation, the better. On this particular morning, the seagull was my only companion - I didn't see another person for the whole three hours I was there. Just me and the rising sun. Heavenly!

        Technical info: this was a 30 second exposure, taken half an hour before sunrise. The moon was full and there was a slight light in the sky to the east, hence the milky sheen of the water.

                C'mon all you competitive photogs! The weekends coming up, plenty of time to take a pic to meet the challenge. Think of the satisfaction you will feel if you win with a picture you actually took, instead of trolling your archives!

                  Here is my submission. The Waterfront. A bar that has been in San Diego for a long time, still very popular and one of those places that has young and old patrons alike. I've been there myself a few times to drown my sorrows and "Hideaway".



                  Thanks so much!

                    This was taken two weeks ago at a festival to celebrate the autumn equinox.

                    This feller was at peace with everything. Although there were lots of people around singing etc he simply closed his eyes and muttered or sang in his own little hideaway!

                            Obviously I didn't choose a very popular subject, sorry about that.

                            My selections:

                            1st Pjphoto's 'Waterfront
                            2nd Jojo's crafty cat
                            3rd Gez's Orang Utang
