I just quote the message with the photo. Sometimes it includes the picture, sometimes not. But I’ve always assumed it’s to do with how the OP put their photo on here.

Much appreciated!

Facepalm in the insect kingdom.

Ok here is the anti-war cannon sculpture I mentioned earlier. Outside the ITU (International Telecommunication Union).

I love the blurry motion of this picture!

Hmm. An interesting way to park one's car me thinks.

Actually, it was even more interesting to see the car slowly rolling down the aisle with one side going up, then down, then having the front rise and then lower and then ... I think you get the picture. It was quite a show.

Only one cherry on this newly transplanted tree in my backyard:

Is that what some say, "very close to the horse's tail"?

Train blur

X100T 23mm - 1/60 sec at f/16 - iso 200 - out and on a photo walkabout. Full frame.

A little bit of mustard, Ketchup, Pepper & Salt, and a whole lot of DOF.

Normally hard to capture on camera, this little wren just sat still and watched me.

I know that place!

 

[oblomow]

And from a few miles round the coast - Newgale. The ship is a tanker (oil or gas - not sure which). And the people can appear to be refugees from Lowry's Manchester if your mind is in the right place:

Just adding: This was taken with my iPhone 12 Pro, handheld, and has not been retouched or edited. The sea really was that flat.

Lovely imaged. Might I suggest an edit? I think it would benefit if you cropped off the bottom third. (please ignore my comment if you don't want reactions)

Another Rose Garden Shot.

Happy for anyone to suggest anything!

As a composition suggestion, I rather agree. But as an impression from actually being there, I decided to leave it as taken. And the other problem doing that would cause is either changing it to a wide landscape or cropping the sides.

Another view of that sunset, from a couple of fields down the road...

They are indeed rather elusive. Feisty little buggers.
