So much joy in one image

A singer in Ilminster choir Sang well, but was lacking in foir. Now, trained on Schweppes Tonics, His upper harmonics Are the wonder of Somersetshoir.

At a concert a fellow of Caius Spoilt the Brahms with a thunderous snaius, So the whole Philharmonic Cried "Take some Schweppes Tonic," And a don-more polite-added " plaius."

Quite impressed with the limerick-ing of the Schweppes copywriter in these 1935 Proms programmes advertisements…

I had exactly that reaction!

Any excuse to repost this peerless thread.

Grainy pic of a female northern cardinal (I think). Amazing red beak.

Poor quality phone snap, but what a lovely bird.

Album cover, title of which is “Derek Bell plays with himself”

May I contribute this?

Chapeau

Sunrise over the Nile at Luxor, from a balloon, mist and tree shadows, and two balloons at lower altitude on the left.

Such beautiful, thoughtful images. 👏👏

There is an infinite beauty to moving water, waiting to be discovered! The purple of a winter evening's twilight is softly reflected in the fast moving waters of the St. Lawrence River, Montreal, Canada.

The sublime textures and shapes of Namibia's dunes spring to life with the first light of day. There is beauty in simplicity!

A harmonious interplay of lines, shape, textures and tones, as the first light of day touches the ridge lines of a coastal dune. It was mesmerizing to see how the scene transformed as the light crept into the shadows.

For a short lived moment, the soft light of the morning sun draws beautiful, dreamy bands of satin across the tips of these otherwise inconspicuous dunes in Namibia's mesmerizing Sossusvlei region.

The beauty of soft lines, of meandering lines...

Love this.

Two people, two red lights, a yellow line, and a misty train. Not much more to see than that tbh.

Up in my local woods again yesterday, and I bumped into this tree again. It's always a pleasure to see and photograph.

Two hot air balloons at dawn, with the city of Luxor in the background. Muted orange sky, and minarets visible

A dark seabird stands on the edge of a cliff with wings raised, head tilted up, and a striking electric-blue throat and eye. Photographed in La Jolla, California.

How cool is that electric-blue throat patch on this Brandt’s Cormorant! Unreal.

I have cultivated a strategy which guarantees I always win at Monopoly: I lose as quickly as possible. The remaining players think I've lost, but they're wrong. I escaped first, so I win.

V similar progression here, just including Asterix, Tintin and Lucky Luke.

The biggest contributor to copyright infringement is calling work "content". Work has value, but content does not. Since it has no value, there's no harm in infringement, right? We need to go back to recognising - and paying for - the value inherent in artistic works.

My friends in Austria sent this and I can't stop watching...wait for the end. 🤗💜
