A Close Look

I was a kid who loved lounging in the grass and looking at clouds. I saw all sorts of things in their shapes. There are times when things look different if you stop and take a good look. Here are two of those things I found this week.
A potato from our garden

A grasshopper on my kitchen window

I didn't put my thoughts as captions for these photos because I wanted you to have your own first impression. The potato made me think snowman or maybe a little fat man  with a bow tie. The grasshopper looks like someone has been drawing cartoons on his belly. What was your first impression? Other than how useless this post is! <giggle>

    Cool images! I had a couple thoughts about the potato, none of which I`ll put here since they were of a mature nature. =)

    I loved the drawing on the stomach?? of the grasshopper, it did look like someone drew on him.
    I didn't know it was a potato so it was good you told what it was, I love finding things like that.

    At first glance, the potato reminded me of a Dr. Zeuss character and I wondered why somebody drew a face on a grasshopper.

    I thought the grasshopper looked like a Transformer!

    The potato? Reminded me of abstract art!

    My 1st impression...that my brain has turned to mush because I was looking at the top photo and all I could think of is "what IS that?"

    the potato reminded me of one of those old time metal spinning tops - the kind you had to pump the handle to get spinning. and the grasshopper definitely has a cat drawn on his torso!
