Scavenger Hunt Sunday

can't believe it's SHS again with Ashley over at Ramblings & Photos. this week has flown by. where did my time go? a memorable week though. my son turned 18. also had a blast hunting for this weeks prompts with him and wendy again.
so let's get to it!

1)color me green
loved the reflection in this pond. i actually took over 20 photos at this setting. some shots had a window and lantern in the reflection. but i liked this simple reflection. can you see the fish? this is SOOC and looks like it could be art on a canvas hanging in my home.


2)hobby
ok. so i LOVE knitting. sitting in my comfy chair by the fireplace, hearing the click of my needles and feeling the soft yarn (LOVE alpaca) in my hands is SO relaxing to me.
 and i LOVE collecting all things old and with a history. scouring through antique stores and flea markets trying to find that great little find is so much fun!



3)strike a pose
that's me and my photo bud goofing off, trying to be 'minnie pearl' after church last Sunday when we went to breakfast!
ugh! i just posted a photo of me. if you know me well, you know i have ISSUES with that!


4)footwear
tell me..would you be able to drive past a GIANT shoe house everyday and not be able to use it for this prompt?
yes, it's real!


5)shiny
how's a girl who LOVES all things old, rusty and chipped supposed to find something 'shiny'? SO NOT ME! 
i mean i could have photographed my mercury glass, but have posted that before. or used the opposite and posted a rusty shot.
but today when we were out shooting, i was able to get close enough to some geese in this pond. when i uploaded my photos, i realized this might work for 'shiny'. i mean, look at his reflection shine in the water. right? may be stretching this a bit. but i liked the effect. 


hop on over and visit the other shs photographers display their works of art.
as always, i'd love to hear from you!

have a blessed week!
