Mostly cloudy and windy weather with occasional sunburst, 100mm macro lens (no built-in image stabilisation), all the nearly 6 feet of moi (sans built-in stabilisation), squatting down to try and capture this squash tendril, and what do you get? Instant delete - except now there is a meme for showcasing failures just like this. Mahalo Thom for hosting. Is fun.

OMG the description you use saying how you were trying to capture it so makes the photo. It's also cool that you tell us what it is. I like it. :) Thanks for playing :)
Argh. I am not as tall as you are, but my girth provides special challenges. I know what it is like to see the perfect shot and not be able to get it because one can't control all of the environmental factors -- or one's own balance!
thom - well, i needed to redeem myself for that photo, and how else to do it than in a text with some (attempted at elast) humour and self-irony. glad you enjoed :)
quilly - different statures present different challenges and yes, sometimes the perfect shot is just out of reach
I would have way too many to post.
