What's Wrong With That Picture ? (Photo) Lame Duck and the Nun

Not Trying to be Overly Political or Religious

 

Here's a photo of a real-live lame duck taken in Okinawa, Japan.

Before I start shooting wildlife, I survey the background to make sure there are no distractions.

I make sure there are no dump trucks, washing machines or loose gorillas running around.

When the eyeball is peeking through the viewfinder, all I see is the bird's eye.

The camera is on spot-focus.

There is nothing else that matters to me.  Just keep focus, dead center on the bird's eye.

Focus, move with the bird and keep adjusting exposure settings.

For all I know, the bird could be showing hooves, claws or be wearing a wedding band.

All I am looking at is the eye; dead-center in the eye.

So, I never knew I was shooting a lame duck, until Doc Graff mentioned it.

A couple of dozen shots of this bird with a crippled foot got thrown away.

Nobody wants a photo of a lame duck.

That's what's wrong with this picture.

Checkout the Picture of this 83 Year Old Nun

 

She got convicted of busting into a government nuclear compound.

Depending upon who you listen to, she could be locked away for 20-30 years.

It's as if she was some sort of threat to national security.

Makes you wonder who guards those sorts of things. The gal doesn't look like a ninja, to me.

There's probably, not a terrorist bone in her body.

Instead of making her rot in jail they should just send her to Rome.

Maybe, the Pope could spank her or, something.

Take a look.  And let me know.  What's wrong with that picture ?

Sunday's Silly Sign (Photo) Nov 27, 2011 Ask for Ketchups

One of my favorite silly signs comes from a McDonald's in Okinawa, Japan.

The large order of french fries is what I always order because, if you're going to have a healthy, well-balanced diet you have to include lots of vegetables.  Right ?

Go look at the food pyramid scientists came up with if you don't believe me.

Well, I get one of those hamburgers with cheese on it.

To balance that you should have lots of vegetables and grains.  Healthy stuff.  You know.

  There's the bun; that'd be a grain.

The bun has sesame seeds on it; another healthy grain.

There are tomatoes, onions and lettuce.

And, they give you a few slices of pickles.

The large order of fries almost rounds out the daily recommended food pyramid, for me.

But, I figure, just in case I come up short on vegetables,  I should douse the fries with ketchup.

Ketchup is a vegetable.  Ain't it ?

So, I've been thinking.  I should probably keep a big squeeze bottle in my backpack.

That way I wouldn't have to keep running back to the counter to:

PLEASE ASK FOR KETCHUPS, WHEN NEEDING ONE

Do the McDonalds where you live make you ask for ketchups one at a time, too ?

Sunday's Silly Sign (Photo) OCT 16, 2011 Catch and Get Off

This Sunday's Silly Sign came from a museum in Naha Okinawa, Japan.

"Please catch the handrail and get off."

Now, that might confuse some folks not used to going to the big city.

It had me scratching my head for awhile.

But, I looked around and found a set of stairs going down into the museum display rooms.

Sure enough, they have a nice stainless steel handrail.

For those people so inclined, I suppose you can catch it and get off.

Me, I just got as far away from the thing as I could and went down the stairs.

And I sure am glad I didn't run into anybody getting off at the bottom.

What's Wrong With That Picture ? (Photo) Make Hitler a Female ?

Regular visitors know whenever I do a "What's Wrong With That Picture" my photo has absolutely nothing to do with what I'm about to show you.  I just surf the news for something weird and find an old photo, dust it off and use it as an introduction.  This one suits my purposes just fine.

Today I found out there was a bird brained scheme the allied war geniuses came up with to sort of turn Adolph Hitler into a girly-man.

I figure this bird acting as if he's wondering what's going on down below his waistline might help get everyone's imagination working before I send you off on a link to the Huffington Post.

It seems like some of those 007-type spies figured the best way to tame Hitler's aggressive personality would be to slip some women's hormones into his soup.  Hah !  If he was a girly man he wouldn't want to take over the world.  He'd sit around the house watching TV and eating Bon Bons, I bet they thought !

Now, I don't want to know what's wrong with this picture.  I want you to take a look at the bird brained scheme ALLIES PLOT TO SLIP ESTROGEN TO HITLER TO MAKE HIM 'LESS AGRESSIVE'. 

Tell me What's Wrong With That Picture ?
