Re: Flamingos in the Park

2023-02-11 Thread Daniel J. Matyola
Plastic flamingos are often used as a symbol of kitsch, bad taste and
cheapness. The movie Pink Flamingos is named after them and helped them
become an icon of trash and kitsch.
Some charities use plastic flamingos as fund-raisers.  You pick a target,
usually a friend or a local celebrity, fill his or her yard with plastic
flamingos, and urge them to contribute to the charity and then place the
flamingos and charity message on someone else's yard.

Nice gallery.  I find the images interesting and effective, but for me the
music was a distraction.
I love the flattened pineapple;  quite humorous.

Re: PESO x2 (insects)

2023-02-11 Thread David Mann
Thanks, Henk.  Cicadas are usually quite hard to spot but that one started 
chirping at about my head height while I was taking photos of the stick insect 
(which are also quite adept at hiding).

I'm further south than the cyclone so we'll be unaffected.  Up north they've 
had an extremely wet summer and this certainly won't help after the damage 
they've already suffered.

Cheers,
Dave

They must have been unwell, because they were smooth and shiny and 
didn’t move.
