Contest 192: Gatecrashing in Sydney
Great to see tooquilos and vibeke meeting up in person this week - rather like when actors break the fourth wall and come down off the stage. And thanks for posting the photographs, too.

It seems to me, though, that there's room for a couple more of us around that table. Can we squeeze a few more Forum members in? Perhaps those of you with wacky avatars could be persuaded to make them more representational for this week...

The original image, courtesy of Mr Friis, is here.

The forum software seems to be squashing my avatar, so here's me if anyone wants to use me!

The forum software will turn any avatar into a perfect square. If you crop your avatar so it's square to begin with, you won't get any distortion!

Anna, I've heard he's like that. I just hope you managed to get some good tips before he disappeared off to the next table.

Anna, nice job as usual.
Doesn't look like too many people want to commmit to submitting pics... I being one of them, mostly because I had to take pictures today due to the strong backlight. The efforts with my existing pics were not cutting it.

Hello, Anna and Vibeke,

You're not yet aware of another visitor. A whaler, not used for its original purpose anymore, just sailed into the harbour.

I'll struggle to get an image of me, but hope you enjoy this anyway.

Steve, that's excellent and very convincing.
