Phone Camera Competition May 2022: "Cheesy"
 
First thought was Kitsch. But i am not sure if that is translated to cliché internationally nowadays. So we will look for cheesy, tacky and corny things this month.
That should possibly provide some of the multi dimensional aspect ric9k asked for.
But i am not at all sad if you take the food implications literally. Yum.

Me, I just named it. You brought the multi-dimensional dimension with edge+edge+edge+edge music! Very delicious.

Ok, so then this is a on dimensional meaning of the cheesy topic.
I tried to make the new fountain my wife wished for -> not kitschy. But the Chinese provided IP67 led lights with the solar driven, battery buffered water pump. And she topped it off with see through minerals and glas "stones".
And thats how we ended up with this tacky piece of kit in the garden.

As a photo competition submission, this is a fail: it is not kitchy at all and thus does not fit the theme :D

This is the view of our garden from the top floor window.

Things accumulated over the years:
  • First came the hanging chair.
  • Then the swing set.
  • Then the playhouse.
  • Then a trampoline. Not this one, a smaller one. To just about fit while still allowing access to the playhouse. But it wasn't good enough.
  • Last weekend we had an upgrade.
That's it. There is no way to fit anything else in the garden.

Taken this morning, 5 May 2022, with a Jolla.

I just wanted to offer an alternative interpretation of "Cheesy":

(not saying this is my actual entry, but I couldn't resist when I saw it and thought of this month's theme) :D

XA2 stock camera, no pp.

I seem to have problems with this month's topic... nothing I see is appropriately cheesy, in the sense of being kitchy, AND worth a picture.

Loosely fitting, logical progression from the last picture:
https://dt.iki.fi/stuff/forums/maemo...519_151644.jpg
It is some Espoo student's creation.
A school had them scattered over a portion of beach as an art project.
Credits go there. Unfortunately I don't remember any details.

And this one (sweets from the local supermarket):

Do you need a translation? Ant's piss and ... baboon's mooning!

Both XA2, stock cam, no pp.

Oh, which one shall I make my entry?

Haha, good entries, thank you everyone!

Still some 5 hours to go before the voting starts.
Who will push the number of contestants to former "glory days" numbers?

EDIT,
My vote goes to Nonsuch!
It is hard enough to beat a Garden Gnome, but a Garden Teletubby, hahahhaha. Very good one.

nonsuch 2022-05-29 17:32

Re: Phone Camera Competition May 2022: "Cheesy"
 
I vote for Pentona's: the garden gnome, the mossy stone, nordic "jungle" and that red wooden shed in the background => Finnish Suburbia!

Pentona 2022-05-30 16:14

Re: Phone Camera Competition May 2022: "Cheesy"
 
I vote nonsuch

And if anyone votes for my entry, I will have no option left than assume conclude that the world has gone completely mad.

Re: Phone Camera Competition May 2022: "Cheesy"
 
I have to vote for pichlo because the world HAS without any doubt gone completely mad. :o

Oh yes, 31 days....:o
But I voted:
Pichlo

mosen 2022-06-01 08:34

Re: Phone Camera Competition May 2022: "Cheesy"
 
Thats a draw again!

nonsuch - mosen, Pentona
pichlo - Fellfrosch, ric9k
Pentona - nonsuch
mosen - pichlo

To not delay things, i am fine with either first come first serve or nonsuch and pichlo agreeing on a topic.
You two decide please.
Congrats to everyone participating <3

Re: Phone Camera Competition May 2022: "Cheesy"
 
Thanks, mosen, for the summary. And thank you, Fellfrosch and ric9k, for your votes. I do not mean to offend you, but... I suspect you only voted for me to make a point about the mad world and not because of the quality of my submission (which, let's face it, was rubbish). If I am wrong, I apologize.

Therefore, I suggest that nonsuch should have the priority.

A lot of people, here + in the countries around, have too much things. We buy too much, we throw too much, things become obsolete or break too early, all this s..ks and is cheesy, not serious.
So in a way, yes, the subject and the pic related is not so bad, I think.

But I admit; mostly I liked this very much, it made me lough:
"And if anyone votes for my entry, I will have no option left than assume conclude that the world has gone completely mad."
