It's The Wolf ...

It's The Wolf ...
For this week's Sunday Challenge, which had the theme of pareidolia.

Don't worry, I'd never heard of it either, but we've probably all done it at some time as it's basically the imagined perception of a pattern or meaning where it doesn't actually exist, as in considering the moon to have human features: the so called 'man in the moon'.

Like I say, we've all done it at some point, but you try finding one when you need to and it isn't quite so easy. Still, I think I got there in the end with this one.

It's actually just a rusty old bracket that had been taken off my wheelbarrow at some point, but not been replaced, and which I spotted lying on the ground. So I laid it at an appropriate angle on a piece of old wood that I also had lying around and 'hey presto' I had my very own timber wolf ... well sort of!

Thanks Dida for the kind comment and the fave. As for the masquerade ball, I guess it does have that look about it, but you'd need a pretty small head for it to fit! ;)

Yes, a wolf it is! Or a fox perhaps =)

autofantasia club has replied to Sami Serola (inactiv… club
I agree Sami, it maybe has more of a foxy look about it, but I couldn't think of an appropriate title that incorporated fox and then I thought of the timber wolf connection and so wolf it was! :)

Thanks for the fave BTW ... much appreciated! :)

After second reading of your caption, I now fully understand the 'timber wolf' reference. That timber really works as a wonderful background.

I also realized there are also so many different contexts! =O

A classic example of you look all week for a suitable subject and then you find it at the last moment under your nose in your back garden - lol! ;)

Anyway, glad you like both the shot and the title Harriet ... thanks for the fave too! :)

Nice work Paul. Excellent composition and lighting.

autofantasia club has replied to Graham Chance club
Thanks Graham for the positive feedback! :)

To be honest the light was a real issue as it was late in the day and so our back garden was completely in shade. Good from the point of view that I didn't get any distracting shadows, but a pain trying to get any kind of decent exposure ... still most people are like you and seem to like how it turned out! :)
