SDMB Monthly Photo Competition - rolling discussion thread

I’m going to build one and call it Motel 6 Legs.

mmm

We need to build one too. We’ve had carpenter bees making holes in places we’d rather they not - this might help alleviate that. I do love watching the male carpenter bees guarding their nests, though. I had one bounce himself off my head the other day - they fear nothing!

When I saw this month’s competition, I immediately thought of this photo:

Imgur

I can’t enter it because I didn’t take the pic. But it makes me laugh every time I see it.

Can you guess what it is?

A contact lens?

Nnnnnnnope! :smiley:

A carpet?

I can be very literal minded.

j

LOL, me, too, and when I was guessing, I made the same guess as you.

But no. :wink:

Wallpaper?

Another good guess, but no.

My friend and I were one-upping each other about which of us was the worse housekeeper.

She snapped the photo after she and her husband had carefully lifted a lacy tablecloth off a little-used dining table to clean the table surface.

It’s dust.

I conceded she had won our little competition!

I can’t see @Twoflower 's photo, even when I click through. :slightly_frowning_face:

Damn. Again?!? I know I’m not the only one using Google Photos.

I hate how Google insists on sharing a link to an entire album, instead of a single photo. But I guess I’ll try that, since a have an album that’s just for SDMB posts. I’ll repost in the other thread if this works.

Google Photos

I can see this one. Cactus, right?

You should be able to go to an individual photo in Google Photos and just share a link to it.

You’d think so, right? Exactly what I did this time, and it’s not working reliably.
At least Karen_Lingel can see it now. Anyone else having trouble seeing it?

I could not see it before, now I can see it here and if I click on the picture, I can see it in a Google Album, but the second picture is bigger (and, of course, much better).

I was debating between two pics that I had. Then detoured into taking some pics late last night early this morning ::yawn:: :yawning_face: one of which I will probably put in. Just need to figure out which one of the 20 variants I like the most. Now I need to narrow those 20 down to one & then the three down to one. :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

So what is that a picture of? Guitar strings?

Spider(man) webs?

Cool, thank you!
