It's all good. Hugh was just having some fun with you. We all share our photos and a sense of humor.
Oh, absolutely! And I did break the "only post your own photographs" rule in this very same thread.
Just don't "like" something in the weekly contest thread. The crowd can be brutal about that and you will be punished.Oh, absolutely! And I did break the "only post your own photographs" rule in this very same thread.
Right Molly?
Right Deep Diver?
My deepest apologies. I am so sorry, I thought I was still in the Photo of the Day thread
Carry on as you were
Cheers
Hugh
Actually, I suspect that what happened to Hugh is something which has happened to me, too -- and that is, getting confused and forgetting which thread I was in. I was cruising along through these and thought, "gee, why are all the photos of similar subjects?" -- momentarily having a brain fart and thinking I was in the POTD thread!
ETA: ah, I see I should've read through the rest of the thread prior to posting! Yep, exactly what I thought..... It's easy to get confused when we've got several different active photo threads in process!
Fair enough @Hughmac - and in all fairness, I think I was a little sensitive after I broke the rule/guideline about only uploading your own work. 👍My deepest apologies. I am so sorry, I thought I was still in the Photo of the Day thread
Carry on as you were

Besides, I do not want to annoy a macrumors Demi-god...
If I recall the last image, this one should work. FujiXP90 from 2020.

By the way, a demi-god is nothing special, just someone who pays a fee to support the site, appear more important and get access to hidden parts of the forum. Contributor would be a better title, as some have chosen

Old house, built in 1843, we were 4th owners for over 20 years.
My house, my photo.
My house, my photo.
rainy day in Sumatra, Indonesia, 1990, unedited, scanned from slide ...
A little bit of a stretch, but this is a wooden "cat condo/house" about 4 feet x 5 feet x 6 feet. So kind of a house...
If you are not a Demi-god, and you do not treat a Demi-god with the utmost respect, that is a classic career limiting, or life limiting, move.
Just sayin'.
You people are getting me deep into the archive.
Me, too! This is one I've dug out of my archives -- a old cabin that was once someone's home in the Great Smoky Mountains:
A 19th Century wooden building (barn) from the inside.
Got to explore an old school building before demolition.
Tona Toraja land, Sulawesi, Indonesia, 1990 ...
Absolutely fascinating culture, they build "villages" to celebrate the death, I happened to come across this place as I was touring around ... take a look at the link below.
From Wikipedia:
In Toraja society, the funeral ritual is the most elaborate and expensive event. The richer and more powerful the individual, the more expensive is the funeral. In the aluk religion, only nobles have the right to have an extensive death feast.[26] The death feast of a nobleman is usually attended by thousands and lasts for several days. A ceremonial site, called rante, is usually prepared in a large, grassy field where shelters for audiences, rice barns, and other ceremonial funeral structures are specially made by the deceased's family. Flute music, funeral chants, songs and poems, and crying and wailing are traditional Toraja expressions of grief with the exceptions of funerals for young children, and poor, low-status adults

Death and Taxes...the Municipal building in town where we pay our taxes.
