Caption Contest June 20 to June 27

June 20 to June 27 · 03:39 PM

Hope this image inspires several Pentaxians. There's a Pentax in it, and ME! Going Tuesday to Tuesday becaue I'm late starting this. Took a while to find an image and also to figure out how to initiate the new challenge.

Some things are better left unseen.

Heavens! I hope I locked the house and turned off the water!

I am lost. Four hands means this is Shiva, but Shiva does not have wings!

Thank you, thank you! And for my next number I'd like to play my own arrangement of "Knockin' on Heaven's Door."

**WPRESTO** · 06-24-2017, 07:11 AM

VOTES! VOTES! Time is growing short for voting.

I'm not sure I'm allowed to suggest my own caption, but I will anyway:

For the past hour the guy behind has insisted that I play nothing but "It's a Small World"

**Kerrowdown** · 06-27-2017, 09:14 AM

"Must knock this Red Bull consumption down a bit"

**WPRESTO** · 06-27-2017, 03:22 PM

Time is up for captions (except the additional one I'm going to post here) BUT PLENTY OF TIME FOR VOTES! Otherwise I'll just pick the one that I like best.

Another caption that came into my head: "I'm an angel and all I get is this home-made pipes of Pan. The guy behind me is a devil and HE gets a PENTAX!"

Winner announced Wednesday AM.

I'm a bit late declaring a winner, but MadMathMind has the most "LIKES" so the trophy goes to Houston.

Either way Texas wins, lol

Texas always wins. When we don't, we just change the rules so that we actually won.

**goatsNdonkey** · 06-29-2017, 08:12 AM

The full rules weren't posted at the beginning of this round of the contest (which used to be the normal contest practice), telling that the winner is responsible for posting the next round's contest photo. Does the winner know this?

Checking past contest threads (from a few months ago, before things got a bit off kilter) will show the traditional way of introducing the caption contest. The intro can vary to some extent, so long as all of the essential info is included. In some recent rounds contest moderators were titling their photo, which I think is a bad idea, since it preemtively steals a potential caption from the participants. I was happy to see that did not happen in this round.

I would like to ask the winner, to post a link to the new contest round at the end of this one, since that means that every participant in this round will immediately find that message in their "subscribed threads," even if they don't check the new threads or today's threads links on the forum all of the time.
