CHAT THREAD - HUMOUR.
The subject this week is HUMOUR. I had the idea when I saw a dog whose facial expression made me laugh, but you might see humour in a street scene, a child's antics, a moment during a sport event, a table-top setup, people sharing a joke - anywhere really, candid or posed.
No restrictions on PP except that the humour must not rely solely on the PP.

I went out for a quick breath of fresh air and exercise yesterday afternoon - just a circuit of our local wood, and got to wondering if perhaps I'd set too difficult a topic for this challenge. Just then I noticed something which made me smile - this!

Honestly, that's exactly as I found it, but obviously created by another walker. And in fact it proved quite a challenge to make a decent photo of it because the feathers were so very much brighter than everything else and I really needed to avoid burning out these small details. I don't intend to enter a challenge which I set, but this would certainly have fitted it.

Good spot Simon.
You really should enter if you have a suitable picture - it's well known that most of us set a topic with no idea what to do for it - so don't be shy!
