Hmm ... do you have an alternate suggestion then? How would you word that? Not getting a visual on how we could shoot for the singular, at least not at the moment. |

"Splitting Hairs" would be the normal usage, I think...
********************
An Englishman, by name Sir Babbit,
Took to his fields to shoot a rabbit.
At length, one burst from out a thicket,
And while still running very quick, it
Fell, two arrows in its heart.
Instantly did Sir Babbit start
To fetch the rabbit he had shot,
A tasty morsel for his pot.
At the same time did appear
A hunter, garbed for tracking deer.
A brilliant fellow, the hunter said,
"I do believe my rabbit's dead!"
"The rabbit's mine!" spat Babbit, acidly.
"Let's split it!" said the hunter, placidly.
"Forget it," huffed Babbit, putting on airs,
"I don't believe in splitting hares!"

| These types of challenges where no one has any idea what to shoot for normally end up very low scoring, or just a bad bunch of photos imho. |

How about we explode the topic, Split Hairs: could be Spoilt Harems, Splaited Hair, Spilt Mares...., only the entrant must specify the variation?
Bring on the bad photos, the low scores!!! |
