    Ummm, lost me on that one, Don. :)

    What's the link?

    Mod edit: This was moved from the Dgrin Game shots thread. The shot was:

    262069039_dSAmY-S-2.jpg
    Tenuous, but I was riffing off the rock and my camera looking like binoculars, which one would need to see the building in the previous post.

    I did not just make that up on seeing your comment here.....

    Take it for what it's worth. and post the next riff.......

    SHould be easy. :D

    I love this 626135462_w6AYY-S-2.jpg in answer to this 6080090576_6dd6f23278_z.jpgthumb.gif


    It is a great candidate for the current DSS #86 challenge, though it maybe out of date! :(

    Very good point Richard, but my genes go way way back, as does the negative¹ of the original of the scan² I posted; from the left - 2 horses (unknown), yokel with oil-can is my father's uncle or grand uncle or might be his grand father, my father (or possibly an uncle), another uncle.

    It us a bit ephemeral. They are both B&W, both older modes of travel and, to me, have similar 'feels'. :D

    Maybe Richard can be more explicit.

    Mostly shapes in this one--the long oval grill of the car reminded me of the long neck, the two medallions could be eyes and the squarish windscreen resembled the shape of the head--if you squint enough. rolleyes1.gif

    I don't usually think of that room being used for mere rest, nor does it typically contain a bath, but I'm familiar with both of these alternative names! :D
