Out for a walk in the countryside today, I came across something I'd never seen before. If you don't know what it is, can you guess?

Well, this is perhaps a pretty lame "What am I?" quiz, but I'll offer the hint (or stumbling block, as the case may be) that I tilted the camera while taking this shot. (For what it's worth, I also artificially enhanced the blue background in Lightroom, to match the strength of the foreground colors.)

Owing to this being so lame a quiz, I'll post the answer in just half a day...

This is perhaps more challenging that my previous "What am I?" quiz...

Well, I feel a bit iffy about this for a "What am I?" quiz, but let's try it and see how it goes....

The quiz in my previous post doesn't count as one of my "What am I?" quizzes, so I thought I'd post one of those as well.

I had originally planned to spend the day chipping away at the mountain of email I have awaiting my attention, but instead I went out and took 1,000 photos, including this one. What is it?

Looking at the photo metadata will likely give it away, so if you do, don't answer (or don't admit that you looked :-).
