Unexpected focus

A Photo a Week Challenge: Unexpected Focus

I was trying to get a photo of the Cape Waterlily flower in the middle of my dam when my eye caught something on the flower but I didn’t realise there was a Dwarf Green Tree Frog basking in the afternoon sun.

A bit of a funny that may cheer your day

Twin sisters in St. Luke’s Nursing Home were turning one hundred years old.

The editor of the local newspaper told a photographer to get over there and take pictures of the two 100 year old twins.

One of the twins was hard of hearing and the other could hear quite well.

Once the photographer arrived he asked the sisters to sit on the sofa. The deaf sister said to her twin, “WHAT DID HE SAY?”

“WE GOTTA SIT OVER THERE ON THE SOFA!”, said the other.

“Now get a little closer together,” said the cameraman.

Again, “WHAT DID HE SAY?”

“HE SAYS SQUEEZE TOGETHER A LITTLE.” So they wiggled up close to each other.

“Just hold on for a bit longer, I’ve got to focus a little,” said the photographer.

Yet again, “WHAT DID HE SAY?”

“HE SAYS HE’S GONNA FOCUS!”

With a big grin the deaf twin shouted out, “OH MY GOD – BOTH OF US?”

  1. And no one’s mentioned the little tree-frog yet! But forget the photo, the joke has been copied and sent all round the world by now. Thanks for a belly laugh on a dull afternoon.

  2. First of all, I have elderly relatives who are along in years that would say something like that and they’re not deaf, they just like to mess with people.

    Also,I like this photo because the flower looks like a monster- and I’m all about weird stuff, so bravo!
