<p >Saturday. Midnight. The kids went to Rock’n’Bowl and had a couple beers—Becky, her boyfriend Carl, her brother Roger, and Roger’s girlfriend Fran. In the parking lot, they share a pizza on the hood of Fran’s Corolla.</p>

<p >“Better lay off the pizza, Beck,” says Carl. “You’re getting fat.”</p>

<p >Becky blurts out, “I’m not fat, you insensitive jerk! I’m pregnant!”</p>

<p >Silence.</p>

<p >“Oh you poor dear!” says Fran.</p>

<p >“You #&^%$#%$# !” screams Roger. His first punch breaks Carl’s nose. Streaming blood and wild with rage and pain, Carl tackles Roger and knocks him flat.</p>

<p >Fran helps Becky into the car. They head to Fran’s house for Häagen-Dazs and a good cry. Carl and Roger fight until the police cruiser comes.</p>

Sunday morning. Starlings feast on pizza. Regular bowlers arrive for their practice session. One of them has a Coolpix L19 in his pocket.</p><div></div>

<p>Happy Wednesday everyone. Great pictures so far. Here is my contribution for today. Another beatiful sunset at Clearwater Beach Pier 61.</p><div></div>

<p>Wow, so many awesome images, now on to mine, ha-ha. We had some thawing this week and I noticed a dove/pigeon sitting in a sunny spot doing some birdie things. So, I got the D200 and my usual 300 4.5 Ais and shot a few quick pics through the screen before it flew off. I'm calling this "Morning Dove".</p><div></div>

<p>Good morning!<br>

Beautiful collection of images so far! I went out Sunday to see if there was more bird activity, but to my disappointment, the birds were scarce. Then this guy/gal hopped up on a nearby fence post and posed so nicely that I had to do the portrait:-)<br>

This was with my D300, 80-400 mm VR zoom at f8, 1/250 sec, iso 200, 350 mm, handheld.<br>

Have a great week, everyone!<br>
