This weekend's theme is:

'FROM A DISTANCE...'

This is another competition designed to get people out of the house (and garden!).

Wide angle, standard lens, telephoto or zoom, the choice is yours. The subject you choose to photograph is entirely up to you.

The only stipluations are that your shot must feature a strong composition and must be at least 50 metres away from the camera that takes the shot... i.e "From a Distance".

Landscape, architecture, sports, street scene, whatever...it's up to you, just make it a great composition from at least 50 metres.

The FAQ for the competition is available here (please read it)

From a distance, I know a song about that!

I think you need to put, 'the subject' between 'and' and 'must', otherwise it sounds a bit confusing.

"Winston {Churchill} your drunk" -" Yes Madam !! - but you're ugly - and I will be sober in the morning"

lol...we could just take a really good photo of something close up and claim we used a telephoto lens from 50m away.

It's a good plan but doesn't the exif data show what lens was used? 

Reminds me of that Father Ted scene where Ted holds up a toy cow and says "No Dougal [points to toy], these are small.  They [points out of window] are very far away"

Congrats Cathus...!

And Tugmistress...thanks for getting a clarification on the 50 meters....saved me from being the stupid American that would have had to ask ...oops!
