I love doing these Scavenger Hunts.
It's fun to search through your photos to see if you have anything that fits first ....
then work out how to fulfill the rest of the required photos.
OK, so here are my contributions for February.
1. a bridge
This bridge is the newest bridge over the Brisbane River.
It is a pedestrian only bridge meant to resemble the rigging on the tall ships of the First Fleet.
I love it!
2. something with stripes
Well, sort of !
3. a musical instrument
A busker with his mobile piano near Notre Dame in Paris - taken on our holiday last year.
He could certainly belt out a tune and sang too !!
4. a big lorry / truck
These huge trucks ( we call them road trains ) , often with up to three sections, are used to transport livestock through the great distances of the Australian outback.
If you see them coming towards you, get off the narrow road and let them pass!!!
Taken by Sally at her friend's property near Cloncurry.
5. a round clock face
This was the hardest one for me.
I wanted something a bit different and I've been searching through all of my photos trying to find a clock. This flower specimen was in the gardens between the old town and the new town in Edinburgh taken way back in 2004.
6. your shoes
My favourite ( and best !) sandals for Summer.
I only wear flat shoes even though Tony is 13 inches taller than me !!
7. a park bench
Never miss a photo opportunity with the timer while we're on holidays!
Taken in the gardens of Hampton Court Palace, near London in 2008.
8. a newspaper headline
Queensland 's had a bad year!
9. a postbox
Australia Post at your service.
10. eyes
Dogs don't need to be able to talk.
11. something heart-shaped
Some people have made serving coffee an art form.
12. something red
Irrestible ! from a country market in France 2010.
Can't wait to see what's on the list for March.
Cheers.
I have the March list already. It includes roadkill, seal clubbing, a group of bankers drinking champagne to celebrate yet more bonuses, George W. Bush, rodent droppings, "The X Factor" and a can of Fosters' lager. Happy snapping Helen!
ReplyDeleteHi, thanks for your comment!
ReplyDeleteI too am really enjoying scavenging! I'm taking all of the photos in the month, not reusing any and have been trying to make them a bit different if I can!
I like your interpretation of stripes! The clock face is fab too! I'm excited about the new list, I can't wait for it (a bit sad eh?!).
I love the car photo and the musical instrument - looks like we had the same idea for the angle on that one!

ReplyDeleteIt's great seeing all the variations... I love your heart shot ! inspired. Also the musical instrument is wonderful & I'm fairly sure I can tell what your dog is saying ! Lovely photos.
ReplyDeleteContrary to the comment by Anonymous( which I have removed ), all the photos in my Scavenger Hunt were taken by me or a member of my family!
