There’s Handy!


Bit of an odd one, this, on reflection. Two photo challenges which only really become apparent by peering into the depths of the still waters of the Lake.

First off, is todayโ€™s response for Beckyโ€™s #TreeSquares. The reflections of the trees can be clearly seen at the top of the picture and also bottom leftโ€ฆ and yes, thereโ€™s a slight tree overhang top left!

But, bring your eyes back to the reflection of the trees bottom left. Follow them round from the overhang to where they stop. Do you see what I see? There. Reaching out into the waters? A bony hand, outstretched, perhaps trying to grab something beneath those submerged leaves.

Thereโ€™s handyโ€ฆ for Debbieโ€™s theme for One Word Sunday this week is โ€˜Handyโ€™.

Visit both links for more takes on the theme โ€“ they both open in separate windows.

    I can see it now you’ve said, Tom, but I think your imagination is more cuticle than mine this morning. I would;’t have spotted it if you hadn’t said ๐Ÿ™‚ ๐Ÿ™‚

      No worries, Debbie. You know me, I very often go out on an outstretched limb with some of these photos! Becky told me to have words with my imagination the other day; it didn’t help!
      Cuticle indeed! ๐Ÿ˜€

    If I’m seeing it correctly, that is a mighty big hand! Have we got a giant beneath the water here? One never knows what the mansion is going to create…VK

      Your guess is as good as mine, VK! The Mansion likes to keep us all guessing! ๐Ÿ™‚

    A very bony hand indeed Tom. That sinister looking face peering down into the water from the cloud, is the stuff nightmares are made of. ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

      It all goes on down in the Lake, Sylvia. But with open eyes, everything is fine! Of course, however, nightmares tend to occur with closed eyes… โ˜บ
