TJ visits Canberra and the Pink Vespa

today TJ (and Peter @peterdegraaff) visited Canberra and the Pink Vespa for some photography around the capital.

It was a cold windy miserable day and TJ was blown sideways when posing for us, some wonderful posing opportunities with former PMs and the Queen (well their portraits). I was interested to note a couple of guys posing some sort of figurine in front of parliament house, I tired to sidle over and see if theirs was as cool as TJ, but they moved away.
Every Vespa should be issued with its own TJ to protect the scooter and rider.
@peterdegraaff thanks for a fun photography day

Thanks for a fun day out in "our nation's capital" photographing some great sights and taking us up to Mt Stromlo. Every Vespa clearly needs a TJ. and goes perfect with pink. @beautifulthing @sdspace @onie @38mm @bobfoto @lorihiro

TJ spent some time in Western Australia. There are 10 pics starting with this one if you want to have a look http://365project.org/onie/my-favorites/2012-04-04

Great shot. Love the DOF choice, composition, and mirror reflection (and pink). TJ must have been looking over this shot :-)

Fun shot!

love your Vespa! I'm looking at an electric bicycle. They look a lot like the Vespas but are powered by electricity. They are not really fast (about 35 kph) but they go about 60 km on a charge so it would be great for zipping around town and doing photography. Do you like your Vespa? How fast can they go?

Tj was clearly looking out for the day.

I'm surprised to see the horn button so low down, one would think when travelling throughout Indonesia, that the horn was attached to the throttle in some way.

What a surreal but wonderful shot!! Coolness reaches new boundaries!!

Excellent photo of TJ on the Vespa. Sounds like you had a wonderful day even if it was a little windy and chilly.

cool shot.......and fun!!

TJ's outfit coordinates so well with the Vespa.

I don't know who TJ is but this is a great shot and I love how we can see the view reflected in the side view mirror too--- great twist.

Great shot! Love the view and the composition of your pic :)

Great PoV, and I like the trees in the mirror as well.

He wouldn't protect you much if he started up with one of his, blessed are the meek speeches, you'd get distracted and crash.

TJ stands for tiny Jesus, and he's a smaller version of the big Jesus who in Islamic and Christian teaching was a prophet/son of God. This real Jesus travels around the world going from 365 member to 365 member and appears in their pictures for a week before he is posted on to another. ;)
