Beautiful shot, beautiful lighting. A finalist too.
A well chosen name, a blue and white brush of the genus of thistle like flowers. Playing games again eh..

Thanks, Gotsy. I always appreciate your kind comments. Yeah... I had fun figuring out the name

All the best,

Endre

PS Are you a flower expert

? Only someone who really knows flowers (or one who understands Latin fluently) would get that.

What a cool shot. To even think the end of an electric toothbrush could look like a flower. Great entry and really fits the theme for the week.

Well, I was trying to decide between a sattelite and a virus. Fabulous entry, simple yet interesting. Good luck!

Thanks, Eric! It's not an electric toothbrush but rather one of those bottle brushes that people get to clean plates and other dinnerware with. I appreciate your taking time to comment.

All the best,

Thanks, Peter! I usually hear from you earlier so I suspected you had missed it.

I shot that photo of Antal frying the ant from the ant's perspective last time this topic showed up so I figured I'd shoot something a little less amusing

All the best,

I love this perspective. You've really turned the mundane into a work of art with this one. Bravo Endre! Great entry!

Really eye-catching (as well as dirt-catching). Sometimes man-made plants are the most bizarre.

Great shot! You should "clean up" this week.

Thanks for the kind comment, Tom. I've had what I and everyone else thought were wonderful photos up here before that then didn't make it to the finals so we'll see about cleaning up.

All the best,

Very cool shot, Endre. Excellento.

To me it looks more like a futuristic landscape of the Earth, with huge modernist towerblocks/Towers of Babel. But I'm beginning to sound like someone taking a Rorschach inkblot test....when the real person doing that should be Flibbers....but maybe they're just spiking our English water starting with Flib's end and moving to mine....

Thanks, Suse. Your kind comments are always much appreciated. I love your interpretation of this photo. No wonder you are so creative with your own photos!

On the other hand, as Fibbs gotten you to take his "Rubbish" pills yet? If so, maybe that's what is happening - you are beginning to experience the first signs of a mind- meld :worried: :worried: :worried: :worried: Thanks again.

All the best,

Endre

PS. I'm performinmg at Larry Klein's wedding this Sunday.
