    I was going to suggest that you were using only one lens for each of your images, your 32mm. A sort of a one lens challenge. But I noticed that you have used a couple of other lenses. I will go away and have another think.

    After looking at the previous attempt, then I found the Vermin Exterminator laying down on the job in front of her "cave of doom".
    She is so cute.

    From the time the "Holes" theme was suggested I've had a thought in the back of my mind that everything and anything anyone ever photographs is shot through a 'Hole'. Theoretically a camera lens is just an expensive manipulatable hole. Therefore any image taken of any subject (whether the subject has its own holes or not) can be submitted as an entry into this months theme.

    I am therefore wondering is Caldina's 135mm Jupiter image was a clue?!

    not really, i thought of it after i posted my first image, well my conscious mind thought "this will be a neat thing to do" while my insane twisted mind thought ; "I know what will make this even harder than it needs to be".

    Then I'm all out of ideas. I think you're going to have to emphasize what you mean by

    as it's quite vague and I can't find anything through the entire thread that this could relate too.......

    look at the previous couple of written clues i left earlier on in the thread, towards the end i will make it more obvious but there is enough to figure it out as is.

    There are a couple of "I spy with my little eye" icons in Caladina's posts.

    The crop is a bit too tight here, but I was trying to cut out most of the other reflections. :oops:

    Yes I have seen the spy emojis. Is the Emoji its self the clue or a word in the text? I think Caladina's clues are far to cryptic for me to fathom.
