So, basically a "Single in" for one whole year - very nice! I concur with Walter: You're of course welcome to join us; your project is an ambitious one (in spite of the very usable combo you chose - you'll do fine!), but we'll do our best to support you. M.

Great idea! I initially considered posting my first "real" image of the year. But then I remembered: I had used yesterday's chosen camera for an additional shot - just some knick-knacks on my desk ... showcasing the close-up abilities of the Olympus 12-45mm f/4 PRO along the way; the purpose of...

They actually didn't (come from the other side), as a matter of fact - the situation was signalled on all access points anyway (I looked - because if it had been accessable, I'd've used the path myself). But yeah, probably one of the more common excuses ... Trouble is, they only block access if...

"Klar bruucht's Regle - aber doch ned för mi ..." (Of course we need rules - but they don't apply to me ... Swiss German - and Switzerland in a nutshell; the sign says: Shore path closed - no access. Of course.) M.

Cutie battling the hools ... M.

Grand opening next week - so, working through the weekend ... M.

End of the line (pro tem) ... (I found the next lamp, too - but it is disconnected.) M.

He insisted on posing - and there I was with a super-wide zoom ... M.

Challenges generally follow a set of rules - if you're interested in a specific one you can't get an angle on, just ask a moderator or a regular. There are two (or three) perpetual challenges you'll see regular entries to: The "Today" challenge has been running for the number of days you see...

He had set up a barrier. They moved the barrier and parked the cars on his land. He wasn't pleased. He moved the barrier to block access (and exit) completely ... Round and round and round she goes. Background story: Today was opening day at the local public pool - everyone and their mum was...

That on a follow-me bike would seriously creep me out :p M.

I've shown this before - but I guess this angle more or less tells the whole story ... M.

Past, present and future ... M.

Sometimes, it's all just too much ... M.

Low hanging fruit for thought ... M.

"Pedestrians first" - you betcha ... (In fact, they dithered so much that I when it would have been my turn to cross this street a few seconds later, I waved all the cars through first ...) M.

(Alas, the "don't feed" sign was never meant to prevent anyone from feeding the Triceratops - this was a goat shed until recently ...) M.

Wishful thinking ... M.

Where some enforce their right of passage, others have to give way (ma's alerting the family) ... M.

I'm okay with that - but it was synchronicity, not progression. Never mind, I wasn't going to enforce anything anyway. M.

Now *that's* what I call a fork ... I think you'll have to decide for yourselves - I certainly don't want to be the judge on this ... I volunteer to move the other image to a thread of your respective choice. M.

Pierre, are you good with this being featured on the front page? M.

Zürich! :) M.

The other side of carnival ... M.

This one's subtle if you're an outsider ... but it says a whole lot about Switzerland, or rather, its people. There are several types here when it comes to rules and regulations: "Rules? What rules?" "I've always done this - it can't be wrong." "These rules are made for the hoi polloi - not for...

Okay, okay, now ... I found an online store, but a) they don't sell my favourite kind (organic, mini), and b) I can't imagine them sending anything abroad (they don't even have English as a shop language). Here's the shop (Brack's a local online warehouse), and the product options...

Miguel, this is something so simple that taste differences are really absolutely minimal - strong honey-like sweetness, really tough biscuits as such ... It's wonderful with other strong flavours, sweet or otherwise; I love my Ringli (plural as singular in Swiss German) with a dram of Laphroaic...

A re-post ... M.

Another trick: If you add a start date, the thread'll appear on the front page ... at least as long as it's among the ten latest challenge threads someone posted in ... If it flies, we can also make it sticky ... M.

You might want it to label it as a challenge, then :) I quite like the idea of "themed" open challenges - let's see what this one turns into. M.

M.

I don't know if this is as per the rules, but I like the concept as well as the execution :) M.

Love the theme! I'm fully aware that this might merit a lot more deliberation than I put into this, but at times, the here and now is the time and place to focus on - because transience is at the core of existence. A token of gratitude in beautiful decay ... M.

This house declares itself (in verse) to be the true birthplace of a famous local biscuit called "the Willisauer Ringli" (the little rings from Willisau). Fun fact: I know a guy from the *other* family who lays claim to this ... I think the legal battle was raging for over a century, though I...

In marginal German I try to convey by a marginal translation, this approximates as follows: "ATTENTION! Because of the "wildlife", close GATE completely day and night. Thanks". I still wonder what the actual "wildlife" might be; the quotation marks seem to indicate a metaphor here, but I can't...

Thanks, this is super intriguing - though now we've broken the thread good and hard :eek: Everyone, please refer to https://cameraderie.org/threads/post-an-image-of-yours-related-to-the-one-above-it.37191/post-430408 for a continuation of the series 😎 M.

Beyond cool - the *whole* story. Which reminds me ... we have dinosaur footprints on a rockface high up in the mountains. I always wanted to see those; maybe it's time ... EDIT: Blasted, the place I was thinking of is practically inaccessible, highly hazardous and banned for "tourists" like me...

Gosh, I've always wanted one of these ;) M.

Funnily enough, the context told me the meaning - but of course, I had to make sure ... Merriam-Webster to the rescue :) M.
