Sofia urges us to have some fun this week by finding and showing photos that are puzzling and curious, leaving us to wonder, “What Is It”? She encourages us to edit images to hide obvious clues, and most of all to play and enjoy. Just scrolling through my catalogue relaxed me by taking me out of the present day-to-day angst of life into moments of serenity and joy. In keeping with the spirit of the challenge, I invite you to ponder and guess what you think is depicted in each of the 5 photos selected. I’ll save the reveal for the end.



















Good group! Love the B/W.
Thanks Ralph. Hope you’re doing well out there on the other edge of this continent!
Trying to get ready to capture some of the wonders of the mysterious east.
Made three of them and almost four – the claw but not what bird. Clever and relaxed was your answer to the challenge too. That sizzling in your pot got me curious – full recipe?
Thank you, Leya. The recipe is: in a pot combine Virgin olive oil, as much as you want to store, and plenty of fresh garlic cloves. Bring to simmer over medium low heat until garlic rises to the top and fritters to a light toast. Remove garlic and add clean fresh basil to oil. Allow basil to crisp, then cool, drain through a sieve, and store.
1 to 2 cups basil for each 4 cups oil. Good as a marinade, for general cooking, and salad dressing base. I’ve also made Rosemary infused olive oil. Same process! Enjoy❣️
Thank you! I’ll give it a try💛
Love the fishing line.
Thank you!
Loved these Lindy. The eagle claw-print was a great idea, it totally fooled me but so obvious once you know the answer! Also loved the garlic which I’d never have guessed.
Thank you, Tina. When I came upon the feathers, I saw those big claw prints and knew right away what the evidence was saying!
Cleverly done! I was close on a couple, got the bench right and was so intrigued by the fishing line!
Thank you, Sofia. The fishing line was one of those shots you take thinking, “someday this will fit”!
I’m so glad it was now!
I got the bench right, and the line in the water. My favorite image is that black-and-white shadow and light on the bench!
Lindy, what a great collection! You fooled me on all but two. I was focused on the sand and totally missed the eagle claw in the first one! I didn’t get the fishing line and I would not have guessed garlic sizzling in olive oil in a million years! I had fun guessing, though.
