Tuesday Teaser

Last week's teaser picture was:


which was an Any Deepstyle version of:


Correctly identified as a hedgehog by Wilma, The Weaver of Grass, Simon Douglas Thompson, Ragged Robin and Adrian. My thanks to all for having a go.

Sorry folks but nothing new this week or next.
Believe it or not next week's Tuesday post is already written to suit the date.
That will also give me time to find some more suitable pictures to mangle. Only a small proportion of those I experiment with come out as something I consider useful as Teasers.

It Was Almost a Shame ....

.... to cut the grass this morning:



Such a perfectly formed little growth but I had just replaced the blade on the mower and the weather was being kind.

It's a Weary Life .....

.... being a pampered pooch:

Sun and Rain

A couple from the stormy day which was not much more than a normal blustery Autumn day here. Apart, that is, from it being so dark for much of the time with just an occasional glimpse of the Sun through the high Saharan dust:





In the close shot the Sun looks a bit lop sided as the camera couldn't find any clear edges to focus on.

This morning it was a case of looking where I was treading when we went for our early walk. The ground was wet from an earlier shower and it was almost impossible to spot any frogs in the gloom. This one got out of the way just in time and thoughtfully waited for me to take a flash photo:

Tuesday Teaser

Last week's teaser picture was:


an Any Deepstyle version of:


Adrian got part way there recognising the fringe but it was part of a lampshade not a posh tablecloth.
Thanks as always to all those who had a go.

This week's teaser is probably a lot easier:


If you would like to have a guess as to what it is please leave it in the comments.
They will be revealed, along with the original photo, next Tuesday

Spot the Spider

If it hadn't moved I would never have noticed it.
Typical Harvestman, tiny body and enormous legs:



This one was most uncooperative. It would not stay still so I could get some decent photos to stack.

I Have Often Wondered ....

.... what the view of the world is like from horse back:



I hired a large van when I was moving house and really appreciated the better road view from a higher driving position. It's was only then I realised how restricted the view ahead is from a car.

Many years ago I thought about having riding lessons but bottled out.
Now I just think - it's a long way to fall and I don't bounce as well as I used to.
