SEPTEMBER Photo Challenge Discussion

I'll tell 'ee later in case anybody else wants a guess.

Coconut husk?

Coconut husk?

Looks like the head of a brush to me.

I see a bit of green in there

Yes. you're right. Looks like moss/lichen on a bit of wooden fence.

I hadn't expect to enter but I was boiling some leeks for dinner and I noted the green spume that had pooled at the centre of the pan (my pic was called leekboil.jpg). I thought 'oh, that's kind of odd' so I took a photo. I tried to get the bubbles from the boiling water too, without steaming up my lens.

I think Mouse's second picture if of her armpit hair

A tough month as I could have happily chosen all the entries.

Alex's misty redwoods though is such a lovely pic I would love to have that one on a wall somewhere - just love pictures like that. Taly's bark and biscuits were a delight, and then there were the colours of Cyber's, the contrast of AE's, the softness of Alc's, the beauty of Springs, and the alienesque-ness of Foxbat's. Then you have the weirdly unidentifiable foam of Moonbats - if that's an egg, I'm not eating it! And the lovely black and white of Mouse's first, and the puzzling texture of the 2nd (perhaps hair of the dog??).

However, Hex's thistle head just pipped it for me - love the texture on that!

Looking forward to next month, and although I'm now ridiculously busy, I hope to be able to get in with at least one photo.

Nope and nope.

I'm 99% sure Hex's is a globe thistle.

Well, I thought immediately "echinops", and, looking it up discovered that was either a globe thistle or a lesser hedgehog. Since, to my knowledge, I've never seen a Madagascan tenrec, I must agree with mouse, no?

Chrispy, that just made me laugh!

Nobody's got it yet!

I said boiling vegetable water, do I win a prize? Broccoli/leek... they're both green.

I can see how you'd think that.

Mouse’s monochrome, Talysia’s sand heap, and Alex’ flowers are certainly worthy pics.
But then came A35’s esthetic, very tactile & haptic wood on brick - no more doubt.

 

[AE35Unit]

Thanks anivid!

 

[alchemist]

Congratulations to Hex!

 

[Mouse]

Yay, congrats Hex!

 

[Abernovo]

Congratulations, Hex!

 

[AE35Unit]

Congrats Hex. I believe I came second too, yay!

 

[Talysia]

Many thanks for the mentions, and for the vote, Mosaix.

Congratulations on the win, Hex!

 

[Hex]

eeep!

I mean: yay! Thank you so much for the votes and mentions!!

Thinking... thinking... (eek!)

 

[Mouse]

Get your backside in gear, missus!

My hairy thing was actually a palm tree. Taken at Wayford Woods, which is where I walk the dog every weekend. They have some excellent trees there. (The other pic was taken at Lyme Regis. No surprise there!)

Oh I was close then- I said coconut!

 

[Mouse]

You win then.
