Hi everyone,
Would you like to participate in this challenge? Just post a photo or photos which will be your interpretation of the theme.
The rules are rather simple.
Your photo(s) should be your own, i.e., they should not have been taken by someone else.
Your photo(s) should be taken during the week of the theme.
You are allowed to do some photoshopping.
You are to experiment and, most of all, have fun.

Here is the downside to modern technology - we have at least one box filled with old cables, wires, keyboards, hard drives, plugs, adaptors etc., which nobody wants to chuck out (just in case!!) but which is taking up room we could use for other things!  Bayla |

I am the same way Bayla, hate to get rid of anything like that. I always think I may need these "old" adapters, cables, etc. Takes up room and completely useless. Here is a photo of new technology that I really like, Amazon Echo.  |

I took this photo in Japan yesterday. With one push of a button this machine not only automatically pours beer, but tilts the glass as it is dispensed into it. i.cubeupload.com/iBGnGF.jpg |

While that certainly fits the category for new tech, I think I'd have a problem with that. First of all, how do you tip a machine? How do you tell it your troubles? There is an important aspect missing there. I'll take the old tech with a real live bartender for that.  Sorry for the O/T. |

Maybe a little too much Photoshop but it addresses the old and new  Colin |

Maybe a little too much Photoshop but it addresses the old and new Colin I used to do service and repairs on those old Royals, among others. Nice idea! |

@colin
Very nice - and nostalgic with it. One notable feature of your photo-hosting (postimag.org) / or my browser antics is that below your enlarged photo is a renewing string of spam adverts about half of which are declared virus carriers by Avast. The other half is oriented to clicking your cash away.

The other half is oriented to clicking your cash away. Phil, HERE is a thread about those ads (from about the eighth post in the thread), which resulted in many of us installing Adblock. What concerned me most was the nature of the ads - and that was just from the pictures, I didn't click on any of them! Bayla |

Learned taking a photo of a shiny screen is a challenge. It reflected so much of the room, the window, and it reflected me taking the photo - finally had to get far away to take the shot. I had to take 20 shots of my computer to get a photo I could use. And yes, my desk usually looks just that clean. The only thing I removed to take the photo was a box of kleenix.  |
