Saturday Photo Hunters - TWISTED

Since I wasn't able to get a photo of my brain, I had to use my brain to find something else to enter. AND, for some weird twisted reason, these photos will enlarge if you click on them. Most of the time my photos won't enlarge and I have no idea why they sometimes will and sometimes won't. *shrug*

1. I'm hopeless at untwisting cords, especially all the ones under and behind my computer desk, so I got down on my hands and knees, twisting my body into a pretzel to get this shot.

2. Then I remembered I'd been very lazy after Christmas and had just loosely wound up the outdoor lights and tossed them in the storage room upstairs. At least I know where they are for next year.
3. Finally, I remember the tree that I saw just outside of Marlborough, England, in November 2006 and how its bare branches, all knotty and twisty, stood out against the greyish sky that day.
There you have it...my entries for the "Twisted" theme today. To view more photos on this theme,

    Great "twisted" photos. I think you should leave the lights that way. They form the cutest little mound... besides you had enough on your plate during Christmas without worrying about the lights- a gentle reminder that lifes too short to worry about unimportant things like "twisted" Christmas lights. Blessings to you and have a great weekend!

    That is a really gorgeous twisted tree :)

    I have a similar shot of twisted cords and cable behind our PC.

    My computer cords look like that too. I've tried making them all nice and neat, but I swear they twist themselves back up as soon as I'm not looking.
    Great take on the theme, and yet another one that never even occurred to me.

    Isn't it annoying how wires always get twisted together, and Christmas tree lights - have fun next year! The tree is lovely, just perfect.

    Oh, Leslie, you have cheered me up, as I thought I was the only one who couldn't "untwist" computer and Xmas light wires!
