photohunt

A bee and a flower of average size.

Trying to find a photo that might fit this theme left me pondering on the meaning of average; size, height, intelligence, beauty etc etc.

It left me with the thought that average is often used in the context that anything above is exceptional and anything below is sub standard.   A bit of a misuse of the word which really describes the middle point between to opposite values/extremes.

    Very clever and interesting. Except, as a photographer you’re above average, CherryPie. This photo is delightful!

    yet another great photo :-)

  4. The average description for flowers is always “beautiful,” isn’t it?
