Day 18: Worst Christmas Gift Ever

Coming Soon

 

Info

Notes: Okay, this one has me stumped. I thought about taking a selfie with a hair dryer (I'm bald) or a picture of various dog accessories (I don't have a dog) or a package of underwear (A gift from my mother every year for the past 47 years). Since my humor tends towards the disgusting and crass I also thought about wandering around with a bow and ribbons and decorating various things, such as the dead duck on the beach at work, or a rock, or a steaming pile of deer poop. Sigh. I will have to dwell more on this one ...

A Once Tree

Day 14: Tiny Things

 
 

4 sec, F22, ISO 100

Notes: Being into macro shots one would think that a theme like tiny things would be worth some effort. Normally it would, but a cold rainy winter's day did not oblige so I did a set shot in the boat. The tiniest thing I dound that some one might recognize was a lamp from a mini-mag light so I stuck that in a bit of moss collected from the forest and, sigh, the rest is history. I tried a number of other different subjects but truely none were interesting. Thumbtacks as tiny toadstools? Didn't have any ... alas.
