I decided from now on I'm using a Random Word Generator to title my photos, for no other reason than I'm tired of coming up with them myself. My hope is this will baffle people into squinting in perplexity, trying to make out to what it is I'm referring, what about this photo brings these specific words to mind. And, the truth is, they're totally unrelated.

Joke's on them!

 

But honestly, I didn't notice this particular photo looked a bit obscene while framing it in the view finder. It's the last maple to change color in the fall - last to sprout new leaves in spring, as well - and it just so happens there are mushrooms growing in it. Mushrooms growing steadily year by year. I thought they were rather nice, what with the fall color and all, plus the perspective fits the requirement of being all artsy and stuff. I did not see any resemblance between these fungi and gentlemen's vegetables until I was messing around with it (ha) in Photoshop. 

I had a merry old laugh then, oh did I ever. Oh, yes. Merry. Now you know what I do for fun. Should have kept this all to myself, shouldn't I.
