« on: 27 July, 2015, 05:56:12 pm »
As a parallel gallery to Fully Loaded - Touring Bikes thread, and in consultation with William Gilpin, the UMCA have released the guidelines for picturesque photos of our own touring/camping setups:

In addition to your cycle, photos must depict at least three of the eight elements listed...

... between 1 and 3 planes
... a variety of elevation
... variable vegetation
... lights
... trees or rocks that focus the attention
... animal presence
... roughness
... a harmonious sunset

Are man-made structures allowed? I don't think I have any touring pictures without bridges in them!

Dear Mods, happy to see these erased if tey fail the standards, here's another try:
