Actually, in case you've figured it out, they are not planets. They are hand-made Christmas ornaments that a friend of mine crafted :D
Too bad. I thought they'd discovered a Type OCD alien civilization. :lol:
Okay, this new TV series I'm watching, The Last of Us, is about a fungus-based Zombie apocalypse. Here's what some of the zombies look like:
Now those are a different sort of Zombie, all right. :afraid:

Ha! If I had photoshop skills, I would have inserted stars into the black background.

Oh I just saw this! That's nice. I wish Kirk's Enterprise had visited this system. It would have prompted him to violate the Prime Directive:

SPOCK: Captain, may I remind your of Starfleet's non-interference directive.

KIRK: But Spock, even you have to agree that these planets look tacky and tawdry. We can't let the universe look like this!

Find the frogs! Here are a couple of pictures from Maddie's pond, with a frog in each one. I can see one, but I've yet to find the other.

I kept them at full resolution so you can download them to look at them better.
