In Which Al awards points (nearly) all round.

Well as you can see my WIIW was a reflection of a windmill in a pond. I turned the reflection upside down to make things a little trickier.

Jennifer (AKA old Kitty), probably shouldn’t get any points for being so absolutely trusting.
But what the heck you can have 50% for being nice and not calling me a trickster!

Susan, gets 50% too for insisting it while looks like a windmill it couldn’t be (it wasn’t it was a reflection)

Alas I can’t give John any more than an honourable mention for his creative answer “it's a pastry cutter!” (Deb says I should give points for creativity)

Linda G gets 50%.

Linda would have got 100% for “Well, now it looks like the reflection of a windmill in a very still body of water” but in the next sentence undermines herself with  “...which means it's probably something else entirely.”
Sometimes you can trust me Linda :-)

Anne gets 50% for “it sucks water up from the ground” yes the windmill was for pumping water from the pond where it is reflected.

And finally Marcy who commented the other day also gets 50% for “well, obviously it LOOKS like a windmill. But, knowing how tricksy you can be I suspect it's something else entirely.”

It did look like a windmill Marcy but it was something else entirely!

Reflections

I am busy catching up on some work I need for tomorrow morning.
So just a quick piccie of the day.

A reflection: Even ordinary ponds can be magical.

Still Water


My piccie of the day was shot on my way home this evening.

Deb and I went up the Yarra Valley for a walk. Alas it was raining so we did not manage our stroll.

In the tradition of clouds and silver linings, as we headed for home they parted allowing me to catch the  reflections in this pond just before dark.
