it's monday and it's time for some maddening words.
the idea of Mad Minute Word is we present a strange (very strange yet lovely) word to you, and you draw from it as inspiration for your photo.
as from today, we will give just one word a week and you may post your photo anytime between now and friday. on the weekend we rest, perhaps.
if we fall in love with your photo, we reserve the right to give you cake.
this week's Mad Minute Word is SLUMGULLION, meaning:
1. a stew of meat, vegetables, potatoes, etc.
2. a beverage made weak or thin, as watery tea, coffee, or the like.
3. the refuse from processing whale carcasses.
4. a reddish, muddy deposit in mining sluices.
please tag your entry mmw-slumgullion.
you can also post your entry on this thread, if you so wish, to share with everyone.
This one seems doable. I like how it has different meanings to select from, although I'm not sure if anyone has access to take a shot of 3rd meaning. Lol.
I think having 5 days to come up with something and post is a better idea. I kept meaning to participate but forgetting to do it on the appropriate day.
@ikamera - some people live near the open seas, so we just might get surprised - and grossed out; we'll never know. and if that happens, do we give them cake? :-)
@espyetta - you of all people i know around here would be able to come up with something brilliant on this one. even if you have that "stu" thingie. tee-hee!
@ikamera - they're both excellent shots and i love them! they bring back long ago memories for me as we have something similar to this back in the old country. yay for you!
@ikamera - when i go visit the old country in january, i'll take as many street shots as I can muster, at least the people there wouldn't mind. here in toronto, people havea funny attitude when it comes to getting included in the shot.
@ikamera - also, for these people this is not just for making a living. it's mostly about art and tradition -like there's a certain way and amount of pouring the milk etc.
