You don't get much better for the theme than that Jill ...the circle of life ...wonderful ....doesn't look long till that little one enters the world, the simplicity and the b&w works perfectly.

Hi Susie, yes, she has only 6 weeks to go. Glad you like it :)
 
This is a PABD shot I'm afraid. Lots of ideas this week but little energy. Maybe a reshoot?

Anyway, forget about finding Pokemon (whatever that is o_O) and find the needle instead.

Hi Jill. I was going to say, I spotted it and then the closer I looked the more white heads I saw ... 5 at last count. Very clever and as @susiejb says, looks good. :clap:

Hi again :) well it might be a pabd but I think it's a great idea ....works really well for the theme and looks good too.

Oh, that's a surprise, thanks so much. I suppose I thought it was pretty ordinary because it's not what I wanted to do :(

Thanks Carl, it was the simplest idea I could come up with that would use minimal energy.

BUT, where is the needle. The white headed pins are just to confuse you :p

Ah ha - the sign of the cross. Too focused on the white heads - which were there to throw me off the scent.
 
Thats really good, took me a while so well hidden indeed, could you not find a haystack to hide it in :)
 
Hidden ... I've found it! Ha Nice idea, nicely done(y)

Hey Jill - Now that I cant look at for too long, I thought it was the white topped pins hiding, damned if I can see a needle :D

Such a nice bright image, and the wide border works really well too, nice one (y)

PS I was going to do a cloud as in Wordsworth, but we haven't had any :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:​

Hi Jill. I thought b&w was the obvious choice to compliment the pathos associated with this type of image but this one works just as well - maybe more so as the bright and happy colours contrast with the sadness of the figure. Well taken (love the shadows of those palms).
 
I think Carl summed it up very well, the contrast between the bright sunny day and the lone figure and empty shopping centre work really well.

Oh Shush you :p

Pretty much as everyone else Jill, love the shadows, the colour and the vibrancy surrounding the lonely figure.

MY first thought was b&w but I felt colour added to the pathos of the lonely figure :)

Or wondering what his wife is up to with his credit card as it was MrB :p
 
Hmmm ... wasn't sure at first but it's growing ...

The shopping centre is ugly but, thinking about it, it wouldn't work so well without it.

I'm off to pack my thermals as soon as I finish typing :thumbs:
 
Well flickr is playing up again and not allowing me to copy the BB code on my iPad so the pics are up there but I'm uploading them to here as a file instead.

I couldn't find any fauna(cation) going on but I did find a big cock. Will that do?

I also found the results of said cation too ;)
