Daily Picture Challenge!

[empirestate]

Why so? There's no requirement that the photo's subject be near you, or that you have been to it. Heck, there isn't even a requirement that it be a photo at all!

Um... this is the "daily picture Challenge" ...

Precisely. :-)

I think it's worth noting that empirestate is the creator of this thread. 

Just sayin'.. 

Well, yeah he's been known to change horses in mid-stream 

I have? When do you have in mind?

Ongoing challenge (beginning December 3, 2017): Lyrics to Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, one word at a time. The only requirements are that the word has to be present in the photo, and the photo is road-related.

Count "red" and "nosed" separately; you don't need to have "red-nosed" on a sign.



Rudolph, Wisconsin. This is a town line sign.

Do we also create a daily challenge for Dec 3 in addition to the ongoing Rudolph challenge?

Dec 3: Post a picture of multiple same-type route shields where the larger digit is listed first (either top to bottom, or left to right)

[hotdogPi]

Since "nosed" by itself would be VERY difficult, things like "nosedive", "diagnosed", "Nosedo", etc. are allowed.

EDIT: Based on precedent from March 7 and May 8, my challenge is the December 3 challenge, not a separate challenge.

Making the other challenge attempted yesterday official for today.

No, that one would serve as the Dec 3rd Challenge. (Yours has since been re-posted as the Dec 4th Challenge.)

This appears not to meet the requirement that the photo be road-related.

This should work for "nosed":

I'm not sure if this technically fits, but I'm gonna say it does because the trailblazers are for the same direction. GA 154 and GA 70, south Fulton County:

My contribution to this challenge is from my trip to Charleston, South Carolina at the beginning of June, with this particular photo taken on my Mother's iPhone. This is on Morrison Drive looking Westbound, right at US 52, very close to Interstate 26 in Charleston. US Highway 78 is on the left, and it is the higher number; US Highway 52 is on the right, and it is the lower number - and they are both U.S. Routes. Also, I apologize for the picture being a little bit blurry, but it is a screenshot that is zoomed in. Here is the photo:

Don't know why the 124 is on top here.

There is NO reason for these shields to be in the order they're in.

Dec 5 ===> post a picture of a transmission tower.

Not directly related, but we see them on the interstate ALL the time! some look like 6-armed 4-legged aliens, others just look like tapered poles.

Double circuit Delta tower

Monopole Delta tower

What do the ones in your area look like?

I am interested in transmission towers, too.

Dec 5 ===> post a picture of a transmission tower.

I corrected the date, since it's no longer December 4, and there was already a challenge for December 4.

I took this picture in October, while my family and I were up in Saint Cloud, MN.  Before the wedding we were attending, we went for a walk to hunt for munzee and geocache.  The Beaver Island Trail passes directly underneath a transmission tower near the Mississippi River dam, near the south end of the SCSU campus.

There are some interesting, almost cantilevered timber power lines just before US 421 leaves I-74  heading eastbound in Decatur County. I've never seen anything else like them, and they catch my attention every time I drive past.
