Laugh it up, fuzzball
Continuing with photos from my manual photography session on Wednesday. Here's a little dandelion-type plant showing flower buds about to open and a fully formed seed head before the seeds are blown away. Keep in mind that the camera is hand-held in all of these shots; no tripod!

ReplyDeleteP.S. I don't know the film...
I assume you would number the movie as II, being an old fashioned sort of guy... II makes V in the new money, apparently.
ReplyDeleteI think that these little fuzzballs were an important piece of all of our childhoods.
ReplyDeleteHan Solo said that line to Chewbacca in one of the Star Wars movies. But "furball" would be more accurate, n'est pas?
ReplyDeleteOther than the Star Wars movie, I can't think of a movie in which that line might have been spoken.
ReplyDeleteleesa, thanks!
ReplyDeletesimon, righty-o.
alewis, and they continue to be.
anon, well, technically, 'ball' would not be accurate at all...
starman, that's the one.
ANSWER: Simon nailed it, and was kind enough to encrypt his answer. The line was spoken by Han Solo to Chewbacca in "The Empire Strikes Back," the second Star Wars film, which was called Episode V.
