Plastic Toothed Gerbera
Scraping the barrel for idea's with this theme - decide to stab a pretty flower with a plastic fork, much to the wife's disgust!

Re: Plastic Toothed Gerbera
Strange one, but I like it. The fork prongs look like animal teeth. Like the contrast of the red flower with the background. Also lots of detail in the flower.

Re: Plastic Toothed Gerbera
Ian's right (cough, Arsenal). Take his comment one step further add add a second fork above, an upper set of teeth, and you have a terrific 'wild' flower!

Re: Plastic Toothed Gerbera
Because the rules state that the photo must be taken in the month any particular competition runs and by the person claiming to have taken it!

The only simple guide I have of a pictures validity is if exif is available!

Believe it or not we have had individuals scouring the net for pictures to enter
