Against the odds: The Daily Post: Photo Challenge


Meaning: If you do something against all odds, or against all the odds, you do it even though there were many problems and it didn’t seem possible to do. For example: He had a serious accident and was close to death but, against all odds, he recovered and now he’s fine.

Against the Odds

An unexpected victory? A snapshot of an unlikely moment? This week, show us something that defies the odds.

My dog Trompie thought that he was going to be attacked by this colourful cockerel.

Stretching his neck and creeping nearer the cock against all odds did not move!

      Cute and naughty also when it comes to feeding time. The one in the front keeps on pushing the other one away!

      That’s what Trompie thought. He was in a way ready for the attack on/of the cock .

          Hy kan tog so n bang-gat wees as dit by vreemde dinge en harde geluide kom. Tog as hy gaan vir iets keer niks hom nie. Juis n voëltjie gevang terwyl sy twee vriendinne in verwondering gestaan en kyk het. Hy bly maar n rottevanger as dit op die push kom.

    Scrapy, is julle veilig? Ek sien van groot brande in NZ naby Christchurch?

      Ja gelukkig is dit nie naby ons nie. Dis egter baie tragies mens wonder soms waarom alles met Christchurch gebeur. 11 huise het reeds afgebrand. Lyk of dit op oomblik onder beheer is maar dis steeds nog baie gevaarlik. Dis die wind en droogte wat dit so erg maak. Moontlike brandstigting deur kinders, wat vir my baie erg is.
