Friday Photo Fun - Something Green

Friday Photo Fun is when I share a randomly captured moment,
or perhaps a photo experiment with more purposeful intent,
then pair it with a rhyming riddle to exercise your mind
and teach you more weird facts to which you once were blind.
 

Something Green

In tests of speed and spawn, it's a superhero.
Things it can't do?  Seems like zero.
It's tall and lean, environmentally clean,
And most of all, it's serene.

  5. ADDITIONAL CLUE #1: It is not an inanimate object, but is used to make them.

    1. Ding-Ding-Ding!!! :) It is bamboo. :) Good job Martha! I carefully choose my words so as to try to subliminally plant the answer in someone's head. :)

    1. I wish! If you couldn't get them to hold still long enough for your photo, though, it might be tough to get a good abstract shot. :)

    1. I love that my photo technique makes it look like water, but no... it is bamboo in the sky. :)

  11. Hello.
    I have twisted & turned myself inside out & still cannot fathom how Martha got bamboo. I would have said a leaf.
    These are real brain teasers Rachel!
    Thanks for sharing.

  17. I love this, I read the answer is bamboo, I never would have guessed. Great one.

  18. I never would have guessed bamboo...Martha did a nice job of figuring this out. At first glance I was thinking a splattering of paint or something along those lines. Thanks for the brain exercise!!
