My thoughts exactly, no night shots yet. But, Shailesh, you and I should make sure we do not enter the same one! Lets do some PM'ing on that before Tuesday. i got some good ones at both of our night shot spots. |

He does have really moving work, WOW! I don't know if I would be able to sleep at night seeing those types of thing first hand.
Thanks for sharing,

It's even worse for us bald guys, lol. I have just discovered the wonders of Solarcaine for sunburn relief. Works pretty well. And aspirin every 4 hours, too, helps. |

My prob wasn't the sunscreen, as much as it was not being able to move my legs. We must of walked 50 miles. On Sat. we started at 9am (walking), finished at 1am, after missing a couple trains etc...then Sunday again from 7am (walking)-2pm. After getting back to St.Louis and getting out of the truck I thought I was going to fall on my face.
It was great though, and thank you so much Maya for showing us around although I think a week would be more sufficient to really, really see everything.

Here is another couple that I thought were pretty cool.
They can't all be pretty, I noticed alot of this stuff going on around the city. Also while I was in a skirting city, a gentlemen told me that the particular road I was going to travel would be guarded by armed men because of its nuclear liability. (that was sorta scarry)

Maya / John,
How are you doing for Night Shots III? Mine is not doing that well. I am at 5.58
I know what's John's entry, and already commented that one.
I commented on another Chicago Night Shot. Maya, is that your shot? Because if it is, that it's a killer. I am hoping that one to be in top 20. Is it from any of our GTG group?

| Shailesh, I'm doing pretty good in both challenges, above 6.0 for the moment. Anything in that neighborhood is a satisfying shot in my book. I hope it holds through the week! |

Lets just say...I don't want to jinx myself, but I am doing REALLY well. Yes Shailesh, I think you commented on mine, your name was hidden, but you asked if it was me.
Hard part is I have to wait like 6 more days to figure out the outcome, ARGH!
Maya
P.S - not from GTG, I went out on Monday and got really lucky with that shot.

WOW, that's really nice shot Maya. I hope it will do well. It's definately going to your PB. On second thought, I am thinking it may be in top 10. Best of luck Maya. Don't want to jinx your score, just my best wishes.
I didn't know until you said that I have the seeting to hide my name is on. |
