Zen Monday: #200

Zen Monday #200! I can hardly believe it.

Zen Monday is the day you write about the photo and I don't. And today is special.

Because prizes!

The winner will receive a Lowepro EXS 160 Photo/Video bag (navy blue) and adjustable camera strap. The runner-up will receive a lovely City of Pasadena square chrome key chain.

Anyone can win and there are no criteria. You can comment as many times as you like. I think you can vote as many times as you like, too, though I'm not sure how the polling thing works. I'll put that up tonight.

Because of how the poll thingy is set up, we'll have to whittle it down to a few candidates and enter their names for voting. By the end of today we ought to have some front-runners. If you have opinions about who they should be, please say so. Let your voice be heard, otherwise I'll pick the finalists myself.

Tomorrow you will get to vote for your favorite comment today, and it can be your favorite for any reason whatsoever. I can't think of any rules, really, except have fun.

Thank you for visiting Pasadena Daily Photo. I'm always so glad when you do.

Great Scott! This is a "reely" a nice photo. Kind of a condensed version of "American Gothic." I toast your 200th Zen Monday with a Mason jar of corn likker.

Susan Campisi said...

In a spark of creative genius driven by a low budget, John decides to save production costs on "Strong Love" by using the mower as film reel. Petrea is recruited as PA (production assistant, not Pasadena Adjacent of course).

I can still smell the freshly cut grass at Nanny and Big Daddy's. I got to use the "push mower"!

No harmful CO2 emission unless the operator ate beans the day before ;)

Petrea Burchard said...

Woops. I ate beans at lunch.

Keep 'em coming, and let me know your favorites so I can put up the poll for tomorrow's voting.

That cardboard cutout looks almost lifelike! Had this canine fooled for a second - but, alas, it couldn't pass my sniff test.

Margaret said...

Oh, this is too much pressure. I'll leave it to the pros and just sit back and enjoy the comments.

Bellis said...

They're all so good I can't single one or two out. Give everyone a prize. Maybe a chance to use your wonderful mower?

Unknown said...

My! What big reels you have, Grandma!

Ms M said...

Yes, the correct phrase is "Great Value!"! You win a real reel mower (value $129.99). In addition, you will receive a fashionable straw hat and a pair of gardening gloves, autographed by the fabulous Petrea Burchard, who is standing in for Vanna White.

Petrea Burchard said...

All right, wimpykins, but I'm warning you, if you don't nominate the zenwits, I will.

Come back tomorrow and vote. There might be a bonus prize.

Shell Sherree said...

'Wimpykins'. Heh!

Petrea Burchard said...

Well, I wasn't sure what to do, so as always I enlisted the help of a couple of neighbors and we came up with a list.
