"Put your back into it," suggested Mole by sabresun

"Put your back into it," suggested Mole

"Are we there yet?" asked Mole.

"No." replied Ratty.

"But how much further, Ratty?"

Mole and Ratty made their way slowly under the bridge until Ratty,
eventually flipped at having to do all the work. In England, that is
called 'throwing a wobbly' and it definitely did rock the boat. Luckily,
Mole found that he could swim quite well, when the need arose.

(Yes, it's another dodgy Photoscape effort attempted with a bit of fiddly cloning.
I just liked the idea of it)

What a cool shot. I really like how bridge leads the eye into it.

Nice shot - good angle

So, if Mole swam away, isn't Ratty still doing all the work? No win situation for Ratty...

I must say, you do have quite the imagination
November 23rd, 2011  
I think you did an awesome job! :0)

lol - you can't just leave well enough alone, can you? I always enjoy your edits, they're so not what I would think to do, but so so creative. Is this the bridge that B used to like to shoot?

lol I really like the shot, but i also really like your caption. and now i learned a new British phrase. i always try to avoid "throwing a wobbly" :)
wait a minute, is that really a real phase or one of those things you've made up??

B
@pwallis Yup..one of them. I wish with all my heart I could be there with M right now. Sadly I am working at a minimum wage job that just cut my hours. Lucky for me the man has a way with words, photos and phone calls. :) He's awesome I tell ya!

@laurentye Yes, it is a real turn of phrase.
November 23rd, 2011  
@aj1268 Yeah, but a) the boat is lighter and b) Ratty gets to act ratty, so you could say in his way, he does win out.

Lovely POV of the bridge too!
