No, no, no! I was planning to tell you it wasn't this bloke either (I was going to say "Number One" but I bow to Jimbuna's "The Supervisor") but you're just moving too fast!

The man I'm looking for was a thug; this guy looks like a geography teacher...


Just had my dinner then thought, "I know, I'll ring my father-in-law... he's bald", but no dice. He's usually good on the names of obscure film stars. My mother-in-law also says she "can see him" but so far they've been about as much use as a chocolate tea-pot, the pair of them.

Are these all your photos? They are astonishing! No baldies in them, however...

Ah, yes the pictures on my sig link are mine (taken by me). Thank you!

Basicly you register on flickr and after that you can upload your photos there. It's a "social network" for photography.

Now, what you mean u-boat in Portugal? The only ones we got are at the bottom of our shores and the closest one is in Nazaré, the crew scuttle the boat and went to shore surrendering, when the war ended.
Can not remember if they were sent to Germany or delivery to the English has pow.

There are photos of a preserved sub right at the bottom of the page marked "Favourites". I like the Lego u-boat someone put there... we have LOTS of Lego in our house.

And if those photos on the first page are yours then you are extraordinarily talented; I paint for a living, so I like to think I can claim to have an eye for a good picture...

Default BALDHEAD UPDATE:

I get the feeling we're flagging here. Where were all you Australian baldhead-researchers while I was asleep last night?

The guy was very stocky, not tall, had a rather Balkan look about him with rather sharp features: pointed nose, quite narrow eyes, ears a bit pointy as I said before, also very pink head (not tanned at all, no stubble visible anywhere) which looked very white on the screen and was quite pointed too.

Ah, yes, didn't remember the favourites. The preserved u-boat is the U-995, in Germany.
Thank you, I on the other hand can not draw a strait line or draw anything...

Default Rhodes...

I have to look at your photos each time I log on now. Surely you must earn money from these: are you professional?

My favourites (in no particular order):

Digita Sepia
Nails (LOVE this one)
Chilli!
Wood
Wood Shack!
Rock 'n Water
Path
Shack
Arvore
Buarcos Crew! (great photo)
Bacardi
Gonsalo e Maurix
Soneca

I learned to drive in a yellow Ford Escort much like the one in "Mexico!"

There is great craft in what you do. You clearly see the importance of light; that it's everything (your photo "Interior" for example).

Keep getting those pictures, they are an important archive. I especially like the restaurant interiors crowded with people. You seem to have an enviable lifestyle over there in Portugal!

This thread appears to have fallen on its a..e but I am a determined person. There must be a picture of that bald man floating in the ether somewhere and I WILL find him...
