Man's Place is in the Home by Mark Elshout
For the Who Needs Colour for Beauty challenge, I believe this image says that life is too short not to laugh at yourself! I hope my last week of life involves a few laughs. News came out on the radio. “Australia’s husbands are the worst in the world for doing housework”. But the world should know that whatever housework Australian men commit to, they always complete it with a smile on their face and a sense of satisfaction. / This is entered in the “Personal Meaning” challenge and for me, this whole entire photo sums up my marriage! / Photographed with Nikon D70 and 28-80mm Lense (bottom of the range!)

Bird Puss by billyboy
Scratch, our Siamese, photographed with what would on a normal day be his dinner. Birds were shot at a local pet store and added in Photoshop. As the birds were photoraphed in cages, the bars they were behind had to be cloned out, and this took a lot of time and patience. Addition of shadows and direction of lighting effects were important factors to getting the image to look realistic. 5169 views… 9 November 2009

Daisy Head Mayzie by Karen Scrimes
My daughter Kelsey and I had been playing around taking some pictures when I had the idea to have her looking up as if something were coming out of her head. In the back of my mind I was remembering a children’s book by Dr Seuss titled Daisy Head Mayzie. The book is about a young girl who suddenly sprouts a yellow daisy from the top of her head, and the resultant chaos the ensues. Image taken with Canon 40D and Canon 24-105mm lens + external flash. The extract below was found on the internet: Dr. Seuss was dead, but his widow had discovered one last manuscript. Ten years later, Seuss’s sketches for its illustrations were finally expanded to create a complete story. The book is dedicated by his widow “to the ongoing presence of Theodor S. Geisel…Dr. Seuss.” And in “Daisy-head Mayzie”, the narrator is even represented by the ultimate Seuss symbol – the Cat in the Hat! Remember the little girl whose house was visited by the Cat in the Hat? Mayzie looks a little bit like her! She’s got blonde hair and round innocent eyes – but one day at school, “something peculiar was going on.” On the top of her head, she’d suddenly sprouted a daisy! And it befuddles even the adults, including Mayzie’s teacher. I love how the characters have names that sound like Seuss-ical rhymes. The daisy’s confirmed by Einstein Van Tass (“the brightest young man in the whole of the class.”) The girl’s teacher is “Miss Sneetcher,” and she whisks Mayzie to the Principal’s office. And the Principal’s name is “good Gregory Grumm…a very wise man, just as smart as they come.” But most of all there’s funny drawings. Mayzie’s mom is a welder – she’s first seen wearing a blowtorch mask – while Mayzie’s father (with a dapper moustache) works as a shoe salesman. Dr. Eisenbart looks like your classic cartoon quack, with a bald head and tufts of hair sticking up under a stethoscope. And Mayzie’s super-intelligent Principal sits under an enormous arch of school books, staring at the flower through a three-lensed magnifying glass. The drawings seem even more playful with Seuss’s rhymes about the misplaced daisy. “I’ve seen them quite often in fields growing wild. But never before on the head of a child.” The daisy gets bigger, and soon a scheme hatches in the mind of Dr. Eisenbart. “I think that Mayzie and her plant / Could help me get a research grant.” Dr. Seuss seems to be hiding a subversive message in his book. Yes, there’s a daisy on the girl’s head – but the grown-ups all have their own agenda. Soon the mayor has converted Mayzie’s flower into a campaign issue. A Hollywood agent named Finagle appears, offering Mayzie his business card. Eventually her miracle is being commercialized, with “Daisy-head burgers and Daisy-head drinks, Daisy-head stocking and Daisy-head sinks.” But Dr. Seuss has one last twist in the story, since Mayzie believes that she’s lost all her friends. She sits in despair, convinced nobody loves her. And soon all the petals of her flower start dropping off one by one. Why? Dr. Seuss explains in a rhyme. “You know about daisies. When love is in doubt, The job of a daisy is Try and Find Out!”

"Please no Press" by Bootkneck
Now I’m no expert on our feathered friends, but I reckon the Starling is one of our most under rated Birds. / Smaller than blackbirds, with a short tail, pointed head, triangular wings, / starlings look black at a distance but when seen closer they are very glossy / with a sheen of purples and greens. If you have patients, and can get one on its own, you will hear all manner of recordings. / The Starling has a remarkable ability to mimic ALL sounds it hears. / A various array, from Car alarms, to Song Thrushes. / Not only does this wondrous little Bird entertain, it also lives up to its given name.
