AUGUST Photo Challenge Discussion

[StormFeather]

Oh dear! I blame Alc for pointing the blooming thing out in the first place *shakes finger* but I guess I need to drag my mind downwards and look at future pictorial posts carefully. This is a family site after all, and I wouldn't want to be the cause of any angst.

*wanders away, and finds self whistling nonchalantly as the unfortunate image stays stubbornly in the minds eye. Stops, then shakes head sadly as the realisation of what's been done to the innocence of the image, and ones mind, sinks in*

 

[Mouse]

Slug! Evil little beggars. Nice pic, Hex.

 

[Jo Zebedee]

Tres shiny and new, Alc.

 

[alchemist]

It smells good too!

And the real August photo challenge is to figure out just what is that dang thing, which Alchemist posted today?

 

[alchemist]

And an answer-appropriate prize for they who guess correctly!

 

[Talysia]

I can't believe how fast this month has gone! I managed to get one photo taken, at least - a close up of an old cribbage board. I don't play it myself, though Mum and Dad do. Not sure what to do for my next pic, though.

Great photos everyone!

No idea! Looks like a grill of some sort, or car speakers or... I don't know. Can't work out what the teeny holes are for.

Oh, me, me! Except I think it might be cheating... (but I'd love a pair of pink fluffy dice... )

 

[Mouse]

Is it something Irish? Is it some sort of crazy Irish tiddly-winks set? Or a... I don't know. A deck chair. A musical instrument.

 

[alchemist]

No, no and no. It's not even car-related, or related to Ireland


Edit: Talysia's -- does anybody else see two Galaxy-class starships, departing from a rendezvous?

 

[Mouse]

A cheese grater.

 

[alchemist]

Nah. It's plastic (this is the blue one, yes?)

 

[Mouse]

The blue one. I don't know what the round thing is either!

I was going to say a computer vent as my next guess, but not if it's blue. And plastic.

 

[Jo Zebedee]

See, I didn't realise there was a second one. (I'd still like some fluffy dice, though.) I thought it was the back of a computer, too, Mouse, but not if it's plastic. No idea, here.

nice nest Alex, and I swear I've been down that river, or one very like. who's up in the nest do you know? lovely plumage.

I guess a milk crate for the blue one of Alc's

Despite the lovely plumage; the Osprey in the nest is not deceased, pushing up daisies, nor Pining for the Fjords.

Ruth Lake (A dam in the Mad River) Trinity County, CA; just a couple of hours from home.

not a river I've been in then.

did you discover whether its feet were nailed to the perch?

I couldn't reach that high, and my glasses were smutty. I wouldn't have spotted a nail if it were pounded into my own perch.

Talysa, that is an amazingly symmetrical caterpillar!

AE35Unit, of course you can play welcome in nice moth, and wonderful tree.
