We hosted a 90th Birthday party this weekend, so not much time was allocated to photography. I spent most of my time slaving in the kitchen. Still we got a few...

Theme 1: ... shadow
This caught my eye while we were relaxing after the party.The blurred shadow is because there were two lights shining from almost the same direction. WB was problematic, but I've come as close as I can. Available light. A couple of new-fangled flourescents. I must get high colour rendering ones next time.

Theme 2: ... metal
We had a lovely birthday party. This was a failed attempt at a birthday cake. Pam is just too fussy. It was delicious anyway. You can see the effect of the double shadow clearly here under the METAL knife.

Theme 3: ... anchor
Hey we live in the mountains. Not too many boats, let alone boat anchors lying round here. Still this does a good job of anchoring the tarp in high winds.

Theme 4: ... spider web
We normally live & let live where spiders are concerned, but we cleaned up most of the ones around the house for the party. Here's one we missed:

Thanks for the comp Big Red
