World’s most imaginative title 😏 Just another seagull waiting for some chips (fries to our American friends) to be thrown to it by young screaming kids. Wonder what they ate before hot chips came along 🐦 🍟 🐠
Not the most imaginative name, but I guess it really was the first bridge at some point. The Saco runs quite wide at this point close to North Conway, NH, and it's one of the few spots where the river view isn't dominated by countless boulders washed down from the Presidential Range.

Recreating William Turner (1775-1851) Challenge August/Sept 2021
www.flickr.com/groups/recreatingmasters/discuss/721577196...
Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775 - 1851) known in his time as William Turner, was an English Romantic painter, printmaker and watercolourist.
Turner that became known as 'the painter of light', is known for his expressive colorisations, imaginative landscapes and dramatic, often turbulent marine paintings. He left behind more than 550 oil paintings, 2,000 watercolors, and 30,000 works on paper.

Thanks everyone for your views, comments, awards, invites and faves.
These have an imaginative similarity with a bleak and vast Gothic Cathedral with doors and windows carved through the rock face by the actions of the sea and a top "window" in the shape of a broken star
Flowers often appear to morph into ballerinas when the breeze gently moves their petals. This delightful blossom allowed for one such imaginative moment.
Abstract and imaginative close up of a corroded green metal door with some added white paint from a far past too.
With this state of decay I wouldn't be surprised if this door is the original one from 1894 of the 'Nederlandsche Scheepsbouw Maatschappij' (Dutch Shipbuilding Company) in Amsterdam.
The almost organic looking rust bubbles made me see some fighting monsters (or playful dragons with both heads in bottom area and one left of the middle looking down?)
An imaginatively titled shot of a male. Taken from a bridge across the King's Sedgemoor drain. Probably one of the few birds around managing to keep cool today.
and trying to record his dream :-)

Wildlife is my photographic preference but I also find it interesting looking at other genres
Flicking through Explore you often see pictures of abandoned cars., old staircase's etc. presented in such imaginative ways you suddenly have an interesting and unusual shot of what is a seemingly ordinary object
This picture wasn't planned (although I'd love to say it was of course)
A Heron flies past., and for an instance he's in front of a very dark area., suddenly I have (IMO) my unusual shot of an 'ordinary object'
It's not a 'great shot'., but it has taught me something about 'quick thinking' composition
A native bunch grass well suited for the salty soils at the San Louis National Wildlife Refuge. This is the kind of stuff, along with dead willow twigs, that you come back with from a slow wildlife photo day!
This is the dress that I received from Miss Aniela, with a close up of it (and for more detail) in comments. It is the dress from this shot of hers, which is coincidentally my all time favorite of hers. Thank you again!!
I went to an old western town to get this shot...there were a bunch of tourists taking my picture from afar, videotaping me and whatnot. I think they thought I was part of a show or something, I certainly looked the part. It was cute :) I'm just glad no one asked any questions as I was flinging myself against the wall.
The Empire Hotel is imaginatively done, well decorated and a lot of fun. I highly recommend coming to visit, and once more suites have been built, to stay.
Heliotropium curassavicum. Very common at the San Louis National Wildlife Refuge. Each flower is only 1/8 inch wide. Interesting read at thenaturecollective.org/plant-guide/details/salt-heliotrope/

There are many places in Latvia with really expressive and imaginative names. I don't know toponymy of other countries so well, but Latvians have plenty of such locations. For example, there is a Cake village and district (Kūkas), villages Small Fools and Big Fools (Mazie Muļķi un Lielie Muļķi), ravine of Wolf's Socks (Vilkzeķu grava), and Witches' bog (Raganu purvs).
I visited the last one of the list above in the end of November. Not that I would have anything common with the creatures that gave the name to the bog. :-) It was just my nature explorer's curiosity to check out another boardwalk that led through the bog around sulphur ponds. It was beautiful sunset time, air and ground was crispy, and just before sudden evening snowstorm we picked up few frozen and tasty cranberries.
The trip might have been a bit of a test for one's nostrils, because sulphur wells and ponds could have a strong smell of rotten eggs. Though, due to frozen ground (it is my guess!) we missed this exotic, and only at the very beginning of the path a slight sulphury breeze greeted us. Afterwards we were able to enjoy the scenery, colorful evening sky and clouds in a fresh air. This scene was taken just a short while before it started to snow.
Credit to the warm and imaginative Susietea for composing this scene. It was so much fun to partake in your creativity and an honour to feature in your photo!

Not a very imaginative title I know but this was an experiment with my infrared filter. I tried playing around with the channels and hue etc and I really like the colour and effect of this one. I wonder if anyone else will?
Detail of a crack in a plastered wall with faded, amorphous (by time?) and damaged graffiti around. Also some caked up dirt.
In some way I think the faded color tones reflect a situation between dream and being awake, AND I see a dozing figure with a loose hanging arm.
Like other cities, many imaginative animal scupltures are dotted around Ventspils- in this case, cows. Several are along the historic seaside area, and two are huge. Fun mini-surprises when on a stroll, which in Ventspils is almost obligatory.
The 4 metres high and 7 metres long cow is located in Sarkanmuiža Meadow, in front of the shopping centre "Tobago". Each year about 10 000 plants are planted in the sculpture

An imaginative mind,
AND an imaginative camera
You will find treasures everywhere”
That’s just one reason why I take pictures

Not very imaginative titles these! Still working through my backlog of images to work on, must improve my workflow. Another from Clevedon Pill. Seems to be a theme of boats, high tide and sunset recently.

For the imaginative, the cluster of fence posts and barbed wire make it look like the fence is to bar access to the buildings in the distance. That's not actually the case though, the fence is on a cattle ranch and the buildings are farther than they appear. They are some of the buildings built in 1911 to house a tuberculosis sanatorium.
This may look like it was a warm sunny day. Sunny it was, but warm it was not. We are having our first cold snap of the season. It was -6 C and felt damn cold!
1st February 2021:
Well we've got through that horribly long January and here it's the same as it was yesterday - it's raining.
As I was working on my Macro Mondays and my Flickr Friday photos I just grabbed the first thing that came to hand for today's photo. My old packet of crayons and the new one.
Not overly imaginative, but at least it's colourful.

Which isn't really silly, but that's almost all we have for today.

We were told to be imaginative for this weeks theme. This happens to be very unimaginative. But, I was far more worried about getting close up to a flame with the Panasonic, that imagination went out the window!
It's also not as close (how strange) as I'd usually go, but it has had a hefty crop.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
