It has been a really impressive turnout thus far. 64 images have already been submitted to the challenge, and we've only been open for just over 4 days! We will be accepting entries until end of day June 9 (GMT) so if you haven't had a chance to submit yours yet, don't worry as there is still plenty of time to get in on the action.
Maximum number of photos that you can submit is 3.
If you've already submitted 3 and would like to replace 1 or more of your entries, you may do so at your leisure. Please take care not to remove anyone elses' photo by mistake, as there is no UNDO on smugmug. If you need help, ask me, and I will gladly assist you.
Even if you are not interested in joining the challenge this time around, please visit our challenge gallery and see what the D70 is capable of:

I know that the challengers would all appreciate any comments you may have for them concerning their wonderful photos, so please feel free to post your remarks to the gallery by clicking ADD COMMENT when viewing a particular photo. (Comments can be anonymous)

D70 Challenge #5 – Transportation
Transportation; U.K. term: transport (noun) - A means of traveling, or carrying people or goods, from one place to another.
Your challenge is to convey the essence of transportation however you see fit. How do you (or others) get from place to place? Do you fly around all day in a hot air balloon (I wish...sigh)? Perhaps you paddle to work in a sea kayak? Or taxi around in a Chinese rickshaw? Ever take a ride on a Jeepney? Whatever it may be, let's see it. You can submit up to 3 pictures for this challenge. I ask that you try to submit at least one photo that you feel strongly, or perhaps even uniquely, represents transportation in your neck of the woods. For example, I live in Boston, Massachusetts, USA, home of my nation's oldest subway system. I might submit a shot of a trolley car, or the tracks, or an interesting candid in my favorite underground train station… you get the idea.
I decided to change the rules a little bit here. We're going to extend the submission period to about 2 weeks, to give you all plenty of time to get your shots in. You can submit any picture you've taken with your D70. It is not necessary that the picture be taken during the 2 weeks of the challenge. That is up to you.
After the entry period is up, we will have about 5 days dedicated to voting and commenting. Voting details will be forthcoming in this same thread.
Those who have never submitted a photo to a prior D70 challenge, it is REALLY EASY, so please read on:
