Tuesday Teaser photo verification

Stuff 699

Sorry folks - no winner this week. Silly me, I thought the photo snippet was a little too obvious & that the puzzle would be solved quickly. If you haven’t been keeping up with my blog (except on Tuesdays,) here’s how we got to Tuesday Teaser this week: A couple of weeks ago I opened a link on what I thought was a “trusted site” & got badly burned. The virus that downloaded kept replicating until, at one point, there were over 2700 “infections” in my system. My poor hard drive couldn’t take it. I managed to reboot several times last week, then on Sunday everything went kablooey. I lost everything: photos, documents, address books - everything. I had taken twenty or thirty photos last week of garden decor and harbor scenes and a few other things among which I had hoped to find our puzzle. With all of them gone I had to select a photo that I already had on Flickr - one that I used in a Four Foods on Friday post a few months ago. The current version of the photo editor I use is quite different from the one I had, so I had a heck of time doing a photo cut & finally just had to go with what I considered the best of several edits. Every time I looked at it I could clearly see that it was the crimped edge of a microwave popcorn bag, but I guess it wasn’t really that obvious. I can only tell you that I gave you my best effort and will try even harder next time. I hope you’ll give me another chance. I’ve got an agenda for the weekend that includes a few fun places that might yield your next challenge! Oh, and I’ll work on improving my skill-set with the new computer and new programs, too. Wouldn’t want to make things too easy for you, ya know?
