Around 24 tentacles, 12 of which with a separate eye, all living on one foot they share, moving, shaking, staring at you, reading - TALKING - inside your head… I need a dram of Whisky after that encounterI did not want to look at the 'how I made this' post in the bucket. But I did, and it's just the same creature but with different lighting!
Their eyes were all pointing in different directions though. I'd steer clear of this thing!

My guess is that this type of Bot is probably a good multi-tasker as well. Very clever, as usual, Roland.We … know … your … … thoughts !!! You … cannot … hide !!! Cannot … hide … anything !!! Sshhhssss … anni … hilate !!!

Those palm fronds are there just to lure you in. Don't lose your footing so close. Or it is goodbye, Amigo.Some of these unwonted visitors are quite helpful, to be honest. Many people have purchased these little vacuum cleaning robots recently, they've become fairly widespread. We don't have one, and we don't need one, I think. Vacuum cleaning at night or at specific times when children are not around is overrated anyway. It takes them half an hour's play, or let alone one meal (! ), and you're starting all over again.
But then, there ARE useful assistants. Our new fellow lodger doesn't do any vacuum cleaning, nor does it do anything at all - it just sits there, motionless, in the living room. And still, it helps tidying up the toys, after playing. Just pick up everything, and throw it towards this alien helper… (does NOT turn out well if the kids remember what they all had… )

Creative shot! We have a Roomba, and it is a mixed blessing. It is great that it picks up tons of dog and cat hair, and relieves us of frequent vacuuming. It also is great that we can take it upstairs, plop it down, and it'll do rooms up there too. A real time saver.Some of these unwonted visitors are quite helpful, to be honest.

In any imaginable way …No she/he looks dangerous, but useful.
Oh ouh, he can go after multiple victims at a time? Oh dear!My guess is that this type of Bot is probably a good multi-tasker as well. Very clever, as usual, Roland.

I could always handhold my 300 and 200, which are around 3kg, each, plus the camera used. Sometimes with converter. This one is around 3.8kg, and, surprisingly, possible to hand hold for short times. Balance is quite OK. (E-Type). The G was "G"inormous. That certainly had an own, measurable gravitational effect on the moon and maybe Saturn... (I never had a 400/2.8G).Is this to say that your 400mm f/2.8 lens is of infinite mass, with an irresistible gravitational field? Very clever image and title - again!
What's going on in Tagelswangen??!? (other than the funny sounding name?) It might be a wormhole to … Gündlischwand ( <- ROFLMAO) im Berner Oberland as well.Black hole indeed. One way ticket to Tagelswangen!
As I told my wife the written story, from my post up there, she started thinking about a Roomba… We don't have a dog to find it, or to lose hair in our house. So, hmm,... egg? Chicken? We need a dog to find the Roomba. We need a Roomba to vacuum dog hair…Creative shot! We have a Roomba, and it is a mixed blessing. It is great that it picks up tons of dog and cat hair, and relieves us of frequent vacuuming. It also is great that we can take it upstairs, plop it down, and it'll do rooms up there too. A real time saver.
On the negative side, our space is large enough (~1000 sq ft on first floor) that the Roomba will often run dead, before getting back to the recharger. Either because it got stuck under some table, caught up on a rug, or just couldn't get back. I end up searching the house for it, early in the morning, when it is dark, trying to find this dark brown unit to empty and recharge.
I finally trained Charley to "find it!" and he searches for it and paws it when he finds it for me.
(And to you U.S. guys: over 4m means longer than 13 feet, one inch, plus about 13/27 (! ) of an inch. And should we have any British: sorry, I'm to lazy to calculate how much that is in ells or quarters, shaftments or palms, sticks or fingers. Don't even mention barleycorns...)
"Kriek" is Belgian / Flemish for "Cherry", a kind of cherry, I think. I know the term because I like beer, and Kriek beer is a kind of beer I know. I like Belgian beer
