June Photo Challenge - Discussion

[David Evil Overlord]

That's a very interesting red glowing tree you've posted there, Alc.

 

[alchemist]

Yeah, should have gone for a daytime shot so you could see the purple leaves.

 

[David Evil Overlord]

I saw an article recently on weird-coloured alien plants that might evolve under stars with different light from our own Sun. Have you gone on some sort of (exo)botanical expedition?

 

[alchemist]

*cough*

I told you, me must not reveal our plans, even here. Now, resume cover.

A few more for June I see. I like the fireworks & the carousel & the skeleton & the big fish.

It's my mum's birthday today. Would've been an opportunity to take some photos, had I had my camera on me.

Hilarious
But I know the situation - often been there

It's "Feux de la Saint-Joan" tonight - I'll see if I can keep awake to take some ... something ... celebration ...

Happy birthday mum of mouse.

 

[alchemist]

Happy Birthday Mrs Mouse from here too.

Last week I walked past the presentation after a car rally. Cheering, flying champagne; the works. An hour later I realised I'd missed the perfect opportunity. And I had my phone on me too.

 

[anivid]

What can I say ??
We don't eat much cake around here when celebrating - instead we put fire on things.
(but we wasn't that excited yesterday, even we'd put our best white dress on to look good on the grass )

 

[David Evil Overlord]

Many Works of Fire have been celebrated. Is there a Pyromancer in the house?

 

[Talysia]

There are some great entries this month. I don't think I'll be able to enter anything this time, though - I just haven't had anything to celebrate recently (all the birthdays in my family are close to the end of the year), and pretty much all of my other attempts haven't come out right. Here's hoping I can do better next time!

 

[Alex The G and T]

Looks somebody was over-celebrating just a little in yours

Hah! I hadn't, yet, had time to over-do it. that's my "contented" look, and I was leaning back to... snuggle.

 

[alchemist]

And that's a pretty ugly fish too.

Not long to go now, if anybody has any last minute entries. Unless somebody will volunteer to be up at midnight GMT (that's 1 am BST), I'll put a poll up in 37 minutes. Which will be an hour early, I'll admit, but I can them programme it to close at an appropriate hour.

 

[David Evil Overlord]

Went to the Poll thread, but it didn't want to let me vote.

 

[alchemist]

Poll's up!

Oi David, give me a chance! You have to post the thread first, then add the poll options.

 

[David Evil Overlord]

I thought it was a cunning plan to rig the voting...

Just voted. Anivid's fireworks are winning by a small margin of 100%.

 

[alchemist]

Not any more!

(it appears we have anonymous voting this month. Whoops!)

Ling Cod. Tastes amazingly better than it looks.
