Scavenger Hunt Sunday {06.30.13}

Tools

I didn't have any good ideas for this prompt and almost ended up taking a picture of my crochet hooks or something. Then my kids and I went to visit my college friend Stacy on Saturday. Her husband had a bunch of really old tools that were his great-grandfathers. So I took a picture of them instead!

Motion

This week it got so HOT (we are talking over 100°) that I decided it would be a good time to get out our little swimming pool. The kids loved it and had SO much fun! My two boys thought the best part was having water fights and flinging water at each other (Among other things! See the measuring cup in midair?).

Sweet

My little girl loves berries! One morning I went and picked strawberries for her breakfast fresh from our strawberry patch. She kept eating them just as quickly as I could take the stems off, all the while saying "That good berries! More berries, please!" So I grabbed my camera and took this picture. It wasn't until later that I realized her pajama shirt said "Sweet" right on it- score!

Dots

I thought a ladybug would be perfect for this prompt, but we haven't seen many on our ladybug tree lately. Luckily I managed to find this little guy on the tree and then I put him on the driveway and followed him until I got this shot. I think it is the best ladybug macro I have ever taken!

Stripes

I have lots of striped paper, but I figured that was too boring. So I decided to try to get a water droplet in front of the paper and see how it turned out. I LOVE it!

  1. So many great shots this week! My favorites are the old tools, motion and stripes! I must learn how to do that, but I am missing one key ingredient I think...tripod or monopod.

  3. Fantastic job with the prompts this week. Each one is just wonderful. Those old tools were really neat. I don't think I've ever seen a wrench like that one. The Ladybug Macro is awesome. Sweet was so sweet and how cool was it that she had on that shirt!
    Absolutely loved your Stripes shot!
