Scavenger Hunt Sunday

shs again!
long week, so my prompts were kind of thrown together!
hope everyone has a great weekend and a blessed Easter Sunday!

1)new
tulips are blooming and beautiful!

2)life
one of my new textures i painted this past week.
these words explain 'life' to me.

3)fragrant
as much as i LOVE spring blossoms and the newness of the season, my allergies do not. if it's not the pollen it's the fragrance that gets me. BUT i don't let that stop me from shooting, i just do it with a stuffy nose!

4)pink
this was my first pink prompt..
but then..

i was driving home from the grocery store on Saturday afternoon and happened to see this!
i mean, how many pink trains do YOU see?
had to go home, get my camera, and drive back.
i really need to start having it with me at all times!
SOOC




5)obvious
i was knitting about a week and a half ago. a hat on circular needles. i was loving the color and texture that was being woven together. i was almost ready to decrease, which is pretty close to the end of the hat and i noticed something looked a little odd.
shouldn't it have been 'obvious' to me that i somehow twisted it around and was knitting it in a twisted twirl?
i tried to undo..
but that is a frustrating task for me!
so..this is what's left of my hat!
can't wait to see everyone finds!
would LOVE to hear from you.
blessings!

  1. I have to say that has to be the best train I've ever seen. Not only do I love shooting trains, but I'm always looking for an unusual one. And you found it! Awesome!

  2. I like your texture work on your 'life' shot and can completely appreciate the turn about on pink to include the pink train car.

  5. You really have a wonderful set here. It's honestly hard for me to pick a favorite. Love the picture of the inside of the tulip as well as the dandelion photo with the lyrics. Really, really good job.

  6. I love the trains!!! We used to see quite a few in our hometown in Indiana, but since we moved to the north side of town 5 years ago, we luckily don't have to cross the tracks very often. After you have waited for a triple to go by (at least 10 minutes or more), trains are no longer your friend. But they are very interesting to look at and fun to photograph, aren't they.
