    1. All challenges close at 12 noon Central Standard Time on April 13, and will be noted with a "Time's up!" post within the thread.
    2. Please use the challenge as a motive to take a new photograph rather than using a photograph that you have taken in the past.
    3. Challenges are open to everyone, have fun!!
    4. Though not required, commenting on other peoples pictures is encouraged.
    5. Only one image per participant so please choose the image carefully.
    6. Any posts with images taken before the commencement of the challenge will not be included in the poll.
    7. For photos to be eligible they must be taken between Friday April 10 and Monday April 13.
    8. Ensure dates and times on your camera are correct.
    I look forward to seeing many contributors, remember this is to encourage all photographers to take a shot of the subject rather than post a photo taken in the past.

    I want to warn about prototype photography from restricted areas and private property.

    I can do it, but I gotta be in the right place at the right time, to catch a train!
    With my luck, probably while I'm at the Dr's tomorrow morning.
    Will see if I can come up with something!

    I found a train on a track, just a little bit above the street. Quite a few years ago this same bridge collapsed and twenty or so coal gons made it onto the street. New bridge so I felt safe driving under it.

    I grabbed my camera and took an evening stroll downtown for some street running action. Took several pictures of street cars and cable cars. Ended up choosing this shot of California St Cable Route. We see a few Cable Cars waiting to depart in front, and two cable cars passing each other making their way up/down Nob Hill.
