Thanks Britt and Penny!
I think Rod is busy shooting some really offensive parodies for this challenge :)

Has Rod disappeared lately?
Well, I'm glad he got a chance to see this one because it's priceless!

LOL, Tomas! I think the expression is priceless! Well done. I like that there's just enough of the... umm... the seat to see the entire story. ~Lydia

Thanks Lonnit! You're right of course. I knew from the start I needed a 'crippled sprinter' pose. No way I could imitate the 'relaxed jog' feel Rod has in his original shot. But I just couldn't do it right. This was like the 100th shot and then I fell exhausted. Tomas

Funny! I guess you had a hard time angling the camera up so you could stand? It's ok, the funny pose adds to the humor. :) ~ Lonnit

Rod, I truly sensed the noble touch of history trying to clumsily imitate your legendary creation. I think the only reason why it didn't win the Challenge 90 must have been some rare attack of collective ignorance among the forum members. What a shame.
Aam, there was a link on the 'Ring Ring', i made it more visible now.

Where is the original. Oh, and Rod/master/great in the same sentence? He he :)

"The great Rod the master" At last a man that recognises true brilliance & where the words "master " & "great" have some real meaning:-) You're a connoisseur of fine ahrt Tomas & wot a great job you did recreating this wonderful work:-) Well done mate.
