Man in a boat!

Hebe joined the cellar officially so she can take part in the treasure hunt. She's all into digital photography right now. No doubt will put my efforts to shame. And steal my camera.

Oh hai, honey, didn't see you lurking there......

Cool! Welcome Hebe :-)

Hi Hebe,
it will be good having another person joining in on the photo treasure hunts. Welcome!

Hi HebeJeebie! Good to see you! :welcome:
monster • May 6, 2010 11:00 am
She's already taken like a gajillion pictures. She didn't manage to sneak my camera to school, though. I have to post a pic of the house I saw last night. Sometime today. When i need to procrastinate some more. Right now, I'm off to mow the lawn.

I was wondering why you had not entered the fray. Glad to see you're not too proud to compete with the amateurs, there Foot.
monster • May 6, 2010 11:35 pm
shame you get deeked on the grounds it's not "A Flower" :p: :lol:
glatt • May 7, 2010 8:42 am
Yay squirell!

Now don't get all disappointed if you don't win the contests. You never can tell why the hoi polloi vote the way they do.

That wet pic is especially nice! Gonna be tough to beat without pron.





<yes, that was intentional>
squirell nutkin • May 7, 2010 5:00 pm
I haven't been too proud just too busy to go out and make new photos since I am too honorable to dip into the archives. Besides, you'd probably suss me out right away: "Tiger lillies are sooooooooo 80s! Besides, it's April.)

Anyway, A flower doesn't mean a single bud, it could also mean a single species.
How voters interpret the category is up to them.
But if you want I'll go out and shoot A Single Flower Bud All By It's Very Own Self.

Maybe right now.
lumberjim • May 7, 2010 5:27 pm
don't let monster get under your skin. she's not the boss of you.

I am so the boss of him, his MIL said I could be. But I was pulling your leg, nutjob.

Here's a flower. I don't know what it is. Some sort of bulb that grows next to our tiger lilies. Maybe an iris? It should be called a tiger lily because of the stripes, but I know it's not one of those.

The novelist Chuck Palahniuk has claimed that the color cornflower blue appears at least once in each of his books.
Clodfobble • May 10, 2010 6:39 pm
Makes sense, since all the books of his that I've read were pretty much all using the same main character.

it's already underway and nearly finished. Each category has it's own voting thread.
