With a measly 105mm lens, I think I may have been too close to this majestic deer in Richmond Park. He showed me his dentures, I got the hint and stepped away from his space.
After a while when he got used to my presence we had a great photo session together. I'm pretty sure he wanted to apologise for his earlier bad manners. All is forgiven and I'll be back in a couple of months during rutting with a longer telephoto.
I dare you to centre your mouse and double click!
A crocodile frog with dentures?
Not quite. ....but the markings on the lower jaw do closely resemble an extremely fine set of chompers.....

These dentures were conspicuously displayed on a wall in Vilnius, Lithuania, perhaps in the hope of improving business.
Does this guy look like a grumpy old man to anyone, one without his dentures in?
I wouldn't argue with one though. Emus are the only birds that have calf muscles, they’ll kick you into touch!
So, what are they exactly - they belong to a group of flightless running birds known as ratites, the most primitive of the modern bird families. The ratite family includes the kiwi, ostrich, cassowary, and rhea, all birds found only in the Southern Hemisphere. The emu is the second-largest living bird in the world (the ostrich is the largest).
If you want to listen to a light-hearted ditty about an emu to make you smile I can recommend:

Have a great weekend everyone, hope you don't get kicked by an emu :)
LIITLE RED RIDING HOOD:

LIITLE RED RIDINGHOOD:
There is something strange about you grandma.
Hm...I know! It's your teeth! They're suddenly so big!
GRANDMA:
Oh...well...eh....yes...you're right. I got dentures.
My teeth were rotten.
LIITLE RED RIDINGHOOD:
How terrible for you grandma. Then you won't be able to eat biscuits for a while.
Then it's better not to give them to you.
Then I'll go back home now
Bye grandma (waves goodbye)
GRANDMA: (angry)
Grrr....The plan has failed!
Now I have to starve to death

Amsterdam, Festival Light - this work of art Eye_Beacon is located to the right side on the bridge but was inspired by what happens in water, in the deep dark sea to be exact. Organisms that live in the dark should create and emit their own light. This mechanism is known as bioluminescence and is used to communicate with other organisms or for other animal species or to attract prey. Eye_Beacon by UNStudio consists of two cubes linked together by specially produced stretch fabric. By means of led projections change the colors of the artwork constant.
The Stopera, Central in the picture, (a contraction of City Hall and Opera) is the Amsterdam building complex of City Hall and Opera, the musical theatre. Having regard to the appearance when one is on the opposite located Blue bridge, call many Amsterdammers the building also the “dentures”.
AMSTERDAM, Festival Light - Dit kunstwerk Eye_Beacon bevindt zich rechts op de brug maar is geïnspireerd door wat er in water gebeurt, in de diepe donkere zee om precies te zijn. Organismen die in het donker leven moeten hier hun eigen licht creëren en uitstralen. Dit mechanisme staat bekend als bioluminescentie en wordt gebruikt om te communiceren met andere organismen of om andere diersoorten of prooien aan te trekken. Eye_Beacon van UNStudio bestaat uit twee kubussen die met elkaar verbonden zijn door speciaal geproduceerde rekbare stof. Door middel van led projecties veranderen de kleuren van het kunstwerk constant.
De Stopera, centraal op de foto, (een samentrekking van stadhuis en opera) is het Amsterdamse gebouwencomplex van stadhuis en opera, het Muziektheater. Gelet op de uitstraling wanneer men staat op de schuin tegenover gelegen Blauwbrug, noemen veel Amsterdammers het gebouw ook wel “Het Kunstgebit”.

.... your senses to foods that stick to your dentures!
Across Fifth Avenue from The Plaza Hotel you will find the toy emporium, FAO Schwartz. In 2009, this once unique, magical bazaar of pricey toys was taken over by Toys R Us. The main floor is now dominated by candy......... Still, it's a colorful world where smiles take over frowns and the child in all of us suddenly appears.
Crunchy gummy bears available at FAO Schwartz in Manhattan.

Gloria is getting ready for a hot date and making sure her dentures are clean!
I can't believe I'm posting this it really is so unflattering (for poor Gloria!) I was so excited when I had the idea but no idea where to get dentures from...I assure you they are not mine (or Gloria's). After trying all the local dentists, I posted a request on a local re-use site, I really didn't expect anyone to reply but was delighted when someone offered me a denture. Being fastidious, Gloria is bleaching it!
I took two Gloria pics today as I need to make up a panel for a camera club competition. My original pic won the people competition. I really don't know If I will have the courage to post the other pic, this is bad enough. Gloria is a bit outrageous...I don't know where she gets it from!
Gloria's album can be viewed here: www.flickr.com/photos/28992287@N03/albums/72157712501804723
Old Olive recounts her long life's story - a mouthwash and some dentures wouldn't go amiss if you are in the front seats
"who stole my dentures" . This tortoise could have lost a lot of dentures over the years , but can still mow the lawn without them .
Up through the ice and into the sunshine, the river otter carries a particle of ice on its head, showing off the dentures that were crushing so many fish...
One thing about going out nearly every day to photograph the fox is I never know what else I might run into.
I saw this cow feeding on willow leaves and caught her with her mouth open and showing off her dentures. Also, got a good look at the ridges in the roof of her mouth. Notice, there aren't any upper front teeth. They do have a nice set of back molars to grind up any vegetation that they eat.
Yesterday, in the same area, I saw a cow with a big calf and a small bull.

This has got to be the silliest face I have ever seen on a lab. He looks like he lost his mind, but he's really happy and having a great time.

No medical professionals I checked with believed the slack-jawed look is any more common among old people than with bewildered youth. But old or young, the most likely cause is chronic mouth breathing, maybe caused by nasal obstruction or weak diaphragm or abdominal muscles. A slouched, head-forward posture can also produce that Neanderthal jaw-drop. Poorly fitting dentures might keep more seniors than juniors open-mouthed, but all in all, it’s an equal-opportunity affliction, according to experts.
My mother-in-law (98) is no exception. Still walking and talking.

Not the most attractive subject......but still a visitor to our garden that I'm sure has a part to play in the balance of things....not too sure Julie would agree. ;-))
Apologies for the clarity but he'd marched up out of the leaf litter then wasn't too keen to hang around for the perfect pose before scurrying back into the darkness of the garden.
Wolfspiders are fairly nomadic and great hunters relying on ambush and pounce techniques as opposed to large webs. They have long strong legs and a great set of "dentures" as can be seem in this image. They are poisonous but of more nuisance value to humans...if bitten.

This is my entry for this week's Macro Mondays challenge, Cogwheel.
It is nearly impossible to imagine our lives without some form of cogwheel component or assembly two steps from us.
Without these, there'd be no practical power transmission of any kind!
Gear design, to this day, is one of the most complex subjects in the mechanical industry.
In fact, cogwheel / gear (along with a Spanner) is one of the most recognised mechanical components on the planet. That is why it is used to represent "Settings" on apps, phones, websites, cars and pretty much every indicative sign.
This particular component is a compound gear that is used to vary the drive ratio in a drive train.

Finding inspiration from the song "After the Ball" written in 1891 by Charles K. Harris. and a few parodies of said song.
"After the night is over, after the stars are gone
After the hero's leaving and the rising of the sun
After the night is over, the teeth went in the glass
After the night is over, deaths sleep returns at last."
For the group FlickrFriday (with a Halloween influence). This weeks theme "Fake"
This fence (flipped 180 degees) reminded me that at one time wood was used to make dentures. Wooden dentures were invented in Japan around the early 16th century.
The story that George Washington had a set of wooden dentures though is a myth. Although, he did have a set carved from hippopotamus and elephant ivory, held together with gold springs!
Harold gave us a tow and we camped in the field behind his garage for the two days
it took for him to come up with the tires. He’s spent just about his entire life along route 395. As a young boy he discovered that he had a knack for fixing things – fixing things and keeping them running. He’d dreamt about playing professional baseball - made it to the minors but then came the war and he lost a foot in the pacific so he went back to fixing. The second night we all ate together. Later in the evening drinking and smoking he took out his dentures saying we seemed like good folk.
We could make it to LA in a day if we wanted but we’re in no hurry. Death valley or even a detour to joshua tree.
Internet not so often and sometimes when we least expect it - i can’t remember the last time somebody sent me a letter that was more than a card with a line or two. It wasn’t
something i thought about before this trip began but i’m remembering all sorts of things
i haven’t thought about in a long time
Asylum for the Insane
Here is the link to the video!!
Established in 1869 as a hospital farm to allow patients to grow produce, encourage communal play and give them more freedom than they would normally have. It was opened in 1903 with a two lane tree lined road leading up to the building. An example of Victorian style using symmetry and balance, there are also two huge skylights on the third-storey above the surgical suite to provide additional light. Also of note are the gabled projections and cupola of the two matching side pavilions, a plain pediment over the front entrance as well as a semi circular window on the second storey over the front entrance. All of these elements come together to provide historical significance to both the property as well as the building itself.
A bit of a short write up about the history of this location but unfortunately I am out of time and will hopefully try to update it at a later date.
An absolutely incredible building and nothing else comes close to this one in terms of history, aesthetic appeal and age in the exploring scene of this area. I was very happy to be able to visit this one on two separate occasions but also couldn’t believe how far downhill it went in the span of only six months. One of the solariums was beginning to collapse during my first visit, six months later the roof had completely collapsed and today all three walls are now just a pile of rubble on the ground. Hopefully this building can be saved before it is too late because there are no others like it!

Macro Monday Assignment: Handmade. Be careful what you ask for! Yes, these are handmade - by me. I thought I wanted to be a dental technician in the early 70's but changed my mind. Those classes cost me a lot of money, so I thought I should keep a few mementos.
An instagram friend suggested Schwabacher Landing as one of the must do stops in Grand Teton National park and it was every bit as beautiful as promised! But the short gravel road, leading to the river, is extremely rough, so hold on to your dentures!
Sky was very hazy because of a couple of fires in the area, but, it actually provided some unique lighting.
