    Well, BD, this is a prime example of where you should have followed your own mantra: no title needed or even desired. Telling us that this was a found object relieves a lot of the mystery that would have otherwise prevailed. It would have been joyous to assume that the thing was somehow yours.:D

    Additionally, I know your attitude about removing stuff from a picture but I would have gone to any lengths to get rid of that bright yellow light....it seems to dominate the whole deal.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    A yellow light, however, is a warning light. And that's what was warranted. As to the title - it is not entiteld 'another found object,' but rather is one in a series of found object photos - a series including colored balls, a shoe, a yellow rain coat, a teething ring...
    But this is the problem with the damn titles.;-)

    Laughing.gif! Partially true. But keep in mind that this might have been, say, in the lap of a toddler/little girl in a stroller, slipped unnoticed to the ground, and the loss might not have been discovered until the Mom and owner were blocks away. Then the purse could have been under a bush, in the gutter, until placed on the tree branch a few days later. At least that's one theory.:-)
