Scavenger Hunt Sunday
Scavenger Hunt Sunday
This weekend, we visited my in-laws for the weekend so we could attend my brother-in-law’s engagement party. I knew that traveling with a two month old would be interesting…but I had no idea. We had a great time seeing everyone, but I think we could both use a long nap.

With that said, welcome back to the Scavenger Hunt.I don’t have much of a story today, but I hope you like my photos. If you’ve participated in the Scavenger Hunt in the past, I hope this week’s items inspired you. If you’re new to the Scavenger Hunt…WELCOME! Next week’s items are sponsored by Kimberly at a Fresh Perspective.

The rules are simple:

1) Anyone can participate.
2) You’re encouraged to take five new photos this week for the challenge. Creativity is also encouraged!
3) If you get stumped, you may use one photo from your archive (although I’m not too strict about it – I do my best to take fresh shots).
4) Link up here on Sunday (or Tuesday at the latest) – you can use the button above.
5) Leave comments for at least five entries around yours (with so many new participants each week, it’s the only way I know to be inclusive).
6) Have fun!

Without further discussion…here are my interpretations this week:

1. Monochromatic

I think I took this shot a couple of weeks ago and never edited it. I would have taken a new photo…and been a little more original with “monochromatic” than just my processing, but packing for me and Felicity proved to be quite a challenge. Not so much the packing itself, but her being awake and wanting to be held. I do have a wrap, but she’s been fighting it lately.

2. Starts with the letter…F

I feel like I should be saying, “today’s message is sponsored by the letter F!” Felicity starts with the letter F…as does flying.

3. Upside Down

I’m always amazed by the positions Felicity falls asleep in. Most of the time, it doesn’t look comfortable but if she’s sleeping well, I won’t mess with her. In this particular case, she’s not completely upside down, but she would have been had we not stopped her.

4. Hair

The other morning, we woke up and Felicity was rocking this sweet hair do. I quickly remembered that hair was one of our prompts this week and pulled out the camera. Unfortunately, I didn’t get my settings right the first time. However, Lightroom saved me.

5. Soft

I tried a few things for this prompt, but wasn’t happy with most of what I came up with. So, I settled on “soft focus.”

So, what were your interpretations of the items this week? Be sure to load your pictures on your blog (or your Flickr photostream) and link up at the bottom of this post. Feel free to grab a button to display on your blog along with your scavenger hunt items. The linky will be open until Tuesday night at midnight (EST). If you didn’t participate this week, but want to participate next week, here are your items (these can also be found at the bottom of my blog each week), sponsored by Kimberly at a Fresh Perspective:

1) Kiss
2) Askew
3) Fragrant
4) Simple
5) Plant

Again, thank you to Kimberly at a Fresh Perspective for so many great scavenger hunt items. If you’d like to contribute items to the list, just send me an email with your suggestions (I can better keep track of them this way – and I appreciate all of you that have submitted lists already…my SHS file is quite happy). Each week, I will select one reader’s prompt list, add those items to what is currently on tap and give the selected reader a shout out on my blog during Scavenger Hunt Sunday.

Happy Shooting!
