Scavenger Hunt Sunday! (On Monday!) III

For the past couple weeks I've been linking up over at Ramblings and Photos for Scavenger Hunt Sunday. I'm going to link up this week too! I'm not sure that I'll make it for the next couple weeks since we'll be in Pennsylvania but for today, I'm here!

If you want to know what it's all about grab this box and find out!



The prompts this week were 1. Motion 2. Waiting to Click 3. Fashion 4. Animals Perspective and 5. Many. I've been busy this week so some of these aren't really what I wanted but a couple of them are favorites so I suppose it balances out!

1. Motion
A car in definite motion. I snapped this one riding along the freeway. In case you couldn't guess this is not one of my favorites. It is, however, one of my last minute photos!

2. Waiting to Click

You have to wait for that perfect time when snapping a sunset. Not too high, not too low.

3. Fashion

Another one of my least favorites. Not exactly very "fashionable" but lots of clothes! I was working on packing for our trip and snapped a quick picture.

Stay tuned. The next two I really like!

4. Animals Perspective
I. Love. This. Picture.
Taking a picture from an animals perspective was interesting. This is what it must look like to a cat or a dog when you are about to pet it. I even did the black and white because of the "Dog's are color blind" thing. (Who decided that anyway? Did someone interview a dog??)
Anyway, this is my favorite of this week!!

5. Many

The Kiddo has tried to pack his rock collection to take to show Grammy more than once now. I told him that there was no way those rocks were getting on the plane but we would take a picture to show Grammy. So, here it is. The Kiddo's rock collection. Many many rocks!


So, that's it for this weeks scavenger hunt. Like I said, I was a bit lazy with a couple of these but for me the "Animal's Perspective" picture makes up for it. I really love that one!

I hope you have a great day!!

Scavenger Hunt Sunday! (On Monday!) II

Last week I participated in Scavenger Hunt Sunday and had lots of fun. I'm doing it again this week! The prompts this week are 1. High Key 2. Bedroom 3. Something Tiny 4. Off in the Distance and 5. Stripes.

The following are my interpretations of these prompts. If you would like to see others or participate yourself then click the box below and be whisked to Ramblings and Photos where Ashley hosts this awesome meme.




1. High Key
I need to restate right here that I am not a photographer and had NO idea what High Key was until I checked out some other scavenger hunt entries. To be honest, I don't even know if this qualifies. So, if it does, well, there it is. If it doesn't then consider this pic a freebie (because I liked it) and assume I skipped this prompt because of sheer ignorance. :)

2. Bedroom
 This is the wall in my Kiddo's bedroom. These have been here since we moved in, when the Kiddo was still in a crib. The decor in his room is now Outer space and Solar System so we've left the stars and the moon on the wall.

3. Something Tiny
When I read "Something Tiny" ants were the first thing that popped into my mind! Trying to get an in focus photo of tiny ants with a 12 mp digital camera or an iPod Touch is Not Easy! But, here they are!

4. Off in the Distance
I know it's not THAT far in the distance but I LOVE this tree!

5. Stripes
With "Stripes" as the prompt I almost had to use something from my kitchen! I have stripes everywhere in there, being decorated in Americana and all. I was wandering around when I noticed that this actually has stripes and the word stripes on it. That was it.

That concludes this weeks Scavenger Hunt! I hope you had fun! I sure did!!

Scavenger Hunt Sunday! (on Monday!) I

As I was wandering around the internet last week I came upon this blog: Ramblings and Photos by Ashley Sisk.

On this blog I discovered Scavenger Hunt Sunday, a photo scavenger hunt. I thought this might be something fun to do so I'm linking up!

Disclaimer: I am in No Way a photographer. No way. At All. I have a little Kodak 12 mega pixel digital camera with which to work. So, The following are my responses to this weeks Scavenger Hunt prompts. If you want to check out other peoples interpretations than you can grab this link here check them out.





1. Decay (Old/Abandoned)
Definitely old. Definitely abandoned. Definitely decaying. I was having issues with this prompt because I couldn't think of what to photograph. I decided to take a drive around town and I stumbled upon this. I had totally forgotten it was there and I pass it All the time! I actually managed to find something else also but between the two this was more fun.

2. Groups of Three
Immediately upon reading this prompt this photo popped into my head. I had to honor that, right? Also, a photo of M&M's in groups of three requires you purchase a bag of M&M's. And you know, after you buy a bag of M&M's and open it to photograph the contents then you Have to do Something with the leftovers! Yum!

3. Kitchen 
This is yummy sauce for yummy non-lasagna Lasagna that I made the other day. No great big lasagna noodles to mess with, just use mini pasta shells. The recipe is here: Cheesy Shell Lasagna. I should say the BASE recipe is there. I NEVER follow a recipe exactly (unless I'm baking) I just sort of use it as a guidline and then create my own masterpiece (messterpiece?) around it.

4. Things that make you go hmmmm . . .  
Nothing makes me go "hmmmm" like God's Word. There are so many wonderful nuggets in there and so many other things that make me think. I love it! 

5. "ME" Time
Total "ME" time right there! I know, I know, it's not the best thing for you but I find extremely hard to get Any kind of tan unless I use this. I basically sign up for one month a year and I'm set for the Summer. Twenty minutes all to myself. No one asking for a drink or a snack, no phone calls, no knocks at the door, noses to wipe or hands to wash. Nothing. Total "ME" time!


Well, that concludes my first entry into Scavenger Hunt Sunday. It was so much fun to do this! Thank you, Ashley, for thinking this up! I can't wait to get to work on next weeks prompts!
