Our grandson really needs to cut down on his drinking…..

Hole In The Wall

Is a window without a pane really anything more than just a hole in the wall?

The Hungry Elephant

A hungry (when are they not?) young elephant at Taronga Zoo in Sydney.

Between The Branches

The moss on this tree looks like an aerial view of a rain forest until the bark of the tree on which it’s growing puts it into the correct context.

Reedy

These exceptionally – almost surreally – long reeds can be found on the bed of the River Indre as it flows through the town of Loches in central France.

Dinosaur

No, not me.

For her Fun Foto Challenge this week, Cee wants images of non-alive animals.

Even if this used to be a real animal it would have been dead for millions of year. It’s a head-on view of a model Tyrannosaurus Rex which can be found at the Paleopolis theme park in the Auvergne region.

The bull-necked giraffe

It’s not really bull-necked, of course: an optical illusion caused by use of a telephoto lens.

However, the natural pattern of the giraffe’s hide is very characteristic.

Urban Erosion: St-Junien

An all-too common sight in the old centres of so many towns in rural France that don’t benefit from any significant levels of tourism.

Bridge at Gargilesse

Cee’s theme for her Fun Foto Challenge this week is ‘bridges’. This image certainly includes a bridge, crossing the river in the village of Gargilesse, in central France.

To be honest, though, I think far more interesting is the ‘tie-dye’ lens flare in the top right corner.

The Treasury At Petra

There are few sights more awe-inspiring than the first glimpse of the soaring Nabatean Treasury in the ancient city of Petra.
