Do NOT make me like flowers. Please! It's just a short step from there to bloody insects and milk splashes. And from there? Country music I'm afraid; terminal schmaltz. So please don't do this again and risk having me (gasp! wince!) start liking this floral stuff. Have you no mercy, woman?

Ever wondered what they'd sound like ... I mean if they could talk? I think they'd sound very dignified, and a little bit stuffy. The late Jim Henson would have been a great voice for a pelican.

Of course it is. Unless it's the head shadow of a Tyrannosaurus rhinoceros? Could be that, too. Good fun, either way.

This is graphically very appealing. Grain, tone, texture ... and a nice composition of such meagre resources, too. I do like images that could be abstracts if you just squeeze your eyes closed a bit.

Looks like near me, except our sun is on the other side. I'd have to take this in the morning instead.

So it's the LB?
I told my wife it was the dog! She appeared skeptical.

"Single glass" you say? Nonsense ... I'd bet you had at least three or four. Surely nobody has just one at the Harp?

My thoughts exactly! Well, nearly. Oh, all right, I didn't really think any such thing. But I do now.
The trees are exquisite. And the spy, of course. Is she walking angled towards us, or angled away from us? Advancing or receding? I do love these images filled with ambiguity and uncertainty. It's why I cry (nearly) when I see all those comments on normal challenge entries about 'tack sharp' and 'distractions'. I just want to grasp their heads and a take a big ol' nasty club and ... cry.

Well, show her this. And show her what you wrote. And then you will be there, in every way that matters to both of you.
