Photo Challenge #470

My Christmas gift to “06880” readers was a few broad hints to last week’s Photo Challenge.

There would have been no way otherwise for anyone to guess what Jonathan Alloy’s white-on-white photo showed. (Click here to see.)

Thanks to my helpful suggestions (we can do this activity “by the shore,” and alone or “with pals”), nearly 2 dozen folks nailed the answer: the Westport PAL skating rink, at Longshore.

Congratulations to Fred Cantor, Derek Fuchs, Michael Szeto, Lynn Untermeyer Miller, Susan Iseman, Linda Gates, Joan Ryan, Jonathan McClure, Tom Feeley, Andrew Colabella, Gloria Gouveia, Lynn Flaster Paul, Beth Berkowitz, Michelle Garvey, Jalna Jaeger, Rob Hauck, Ralph Balducci, Richard Hyman, Pam Toney, Mary Ann Batsell, Ann Bacharach and Rick Benson.

I didn’t expect any gifts in return.

Which is good, because none of them got me anything.

This week’s Photo Challenge is a classic.

We all pass it often. But do we really notice it?
