February Photo Hunt Challenge

I’ve been wanting to participate in a Photo Hunt Challenge for a while, but since it is every other month I never seem to remember the challenge until the month for taking photos was almost over. So this month I finally got it done! Here are my entries.

1. A tower

This is the water tower on top of the Harley Davidson Dealership nearby. It was originally a part of the Geneva Steel Mill, and most of the metal from this building is recycled.

2. “Main Street”

This old car is at a vintage gas station on one of our main streets. It reminds me of growing up in Wyoming and how all the teenagers would "drag main" in their cars because there was nothing better to do.

3. Five

Is there anything more perfect than five little fingers?

4. A dog or cat

We don't have any pets... but we have lots of this type of CAT.

5. Two of a kind

My two boys are definitely two of a kind. I love these blonde-haired, blue-eyed boys!

6. A clock

I see this clock almost every day... and yes, they still have Christmas wreaths on it!

7. A game

When you have little people, games like Cootie are the ones we play most often.

8. Something sweet

I made dozens and dozens of these sugar cookies for Valentine's Day. They were yummy!

9. Black and White w/selective coloring

My boys love pretending that they are fixing things for Mommy. They also love to help Daddy in the garage whenever they can!

10. Your own reflection

Can you see me? I am the chick in the helmet. This is my reflection in my husband's sunglasses after we rode 20 miles on our bikes for a Haiti benefit ride.

11. A mirror image

This is a century plant I photographed in Tucson, Arizona. Notice how the plant unfolds, leaving each leaf with imprints of other leaves on it.

12. Night image

Finally figured out how to photograph the moon.

13. Something homemade

This year for Valentine's day my son wanted to make Robot Valentine's for all his little friends. Didn't they turn out cute?

14. Something pink

This is my jersey from the women's only Little Red Riding Hood bike ride where I did my first century (100 mile) bike ride.

15. Something romantic

I know that a photo of prickly cactus is probably not what you were expecting for something romantic... but my husband and I met it Tucson. We like to spend time alone together hiking in the desert, and that is what we did for our anniversary this year. So I find the desert and saguaros romantic.

16. A candid shot

Eli and his friend checking out the horses.

17. A portrait

This is a portrait that I took of my son Jonah. Isn't he handsome?

18. A symbol of love

My husband offers me his heart in so many ways each and every day.

19. A landscape

A cloudy sunrise over the mountains.

20. Chocolate

Almond M&M's! Yummy!
