Probably because the person had a load in the pantry?

Well, it is a pretty can -- drawings of birds, fish, nice shades of green . . .

I do wonder if the sardines themselves are any good, certainly not a brand I've ate before...but the cans look nice.

Number 3



By Recusant!!!

He got 2nd too!!!



Congratulations!

[Biggus Dickus]

Congratulations Recusant very well done! I voted for both of these, and simply love your picture of the ruins, you took that from almost the perfect angle the way the arches diminish over the doorway in the background.

The art ware in the 2nd one reminds of a local artist here in Michigan, and we actually own a couple pieces, and I would share, but they are put away for the moment (Out of season, glass pumpkins with long, twirly stems and vines.

Anyway I liked all of the pictures, and would say this was one of the more interesting of the photo challenges here at HAF, good job picking out the challenge topic Tank, and well done to all who submitted pictures.

[Tank]

I was a bit worried that nobody would take the challenge! It did turn out to get some good entries.

Where were the arches Recusant?

[Dave]

Yes, good one Recusant! Lots of old ruins round here of course - should have thought of those.

Loved the red rose as well, Tank.

Now, at last, Arturo's vibrant query about the sardines can be answered! Tut, no-one over there reading minor American literary classics? I will let the Wiki tell all . . .

Cannery Row is a novel by American author John Steinbeck, published in 1945. It is set during the Great Depression in Monterey, California, on a street lined with sardine canneries that is known as Cannery Row. The story revolves around the people living there: Lee Chong, the local grocer; Doc, a marine biologist; and Mack, the leader of a group of derelicts.

The tombstones are, of course, "Death Row" and pictures of a couple having a shouting match (in the centre of town), in a line, are a "Row row".

Way too intellectual for me, esp. first thing in the morning.

I loved that.
