I'm still trying to figure out how it got there. I know the pic is kind of blurry, but I was trying to zoom in as much as possible. Harmon, can you fix that? P.S.

Fine lookin' froggy by the way. What did you name it? It surprises me that a Chicago gal like you has such a sharp eye for little critters. Plum-blueberry upside down cake y' say? O Lordy, just th' thought of it makes my mouth water, my tongue flap, my ears wiggle, and my eyes cross. No wait, that's perfectly normal f'r me ain't it? Had t' be larapin good.

+TrailGators Posted July 9, 2005 Author Share Posted July 9, 2005 Sorry to digress, but I did some research on an expression that Harmon used earlier today:Cut the Mustard - This expression meaning "to achieve the required standard" may come from a cowboy expression, "the proper mustard", meaning "the genuine thing", and a resulting use of "mustard" to denote the best of anything. Cowboy f'r shore, lots of versions of that ol' song "Too Old t' Cut th' Mustard Any More." Seems t' me that Rosemary Clooney even sang it back in th' fifties. Yeah, yeah, I know ... who's Rosemary Clooney? According to my favorite source John Ciardi, rest his soul, Mustard, a synonym, c. 1900, for "hot stuff," as in he thinks he's hot stuff. Cut, of course, as in to perform. She's George Clooney's aunt.......I think Looked like this in the fifties. Quite the resemblance to "We're in a tight spot" George Clooney! Quote Link to comment

+SD Rowdies Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 (edited) We have friends that spend summer months at a mobile-home park in Santee. Their home base is a beautiful lakeside property in New Hampshire. We plan to spend a few days at their place this coming fall. They are of course Geocachers and use the handle "Hot Tubbers." In order to pester them once in a while we make up stories about the fate of their unoccupied mobile home. Our latest email informed them of a catastrophic event that consumed their mobile home and of course we included photographic evidence. See photo below. Because I have suggested cast-shadows as a PhotoShop exercise I decided to post this composite here as an instance of a cast-shadow effect that's associated with the Three Amigos. As you can see a cast shadow ties a selection into a composition quite nicely. Of course you already knew that, right? I selected the smoke and flames from a shot of a fire that occurred some time ago along Cottonwood Creek near Sandy Creek Cowboy Caches 3, 9, and La Fantasma de los Cruces. Some nut tried to commit suicide by putting a garden hose into his auto exhaust pipe. The goofball passed out, the car caught on fire, the hose melted, and then a passing rancher drug him out of the car and saved him. Of course a huge swath of the fabulous trees that grace Cottonwood Creek were lost. Anyway, let's see a few instances of cast shadows from you other PhotoShop geeks.
