I liked Ashley Sisk's Scavenger Hunt so well that I did it again.
This week's prompts are
smile
stand alone or something old
rusty
artificial
repeating pattern
Smile
Beautiful smile from my youngest grandson.
Stand Alone
I stood alone in this cemetery and took this photograph of a tree standing all alone on a hill surrounded by gravestones. This is my one picture from my archives. I took this picture two weeks ago and was just waiting for a place to use it. Now, I've found the spot!!
Rusty or something old
These rusty nails and rotting wood are part of a decaying out building on my neighbor's property.
Artificial
I went with the obvious...artificial flowers. This was taken at my daughter-in-laws house. She has such a decorator's touch.
Repeating Pattern
I had several ideas for this prompt, but this one just jumped up and grabbed me while I was looking for rusty things. This is a line of moss growing on a corrugated metal building. It looks like a tiny line of trees! The metal has a repetitive pattern and so does the moss.
I think I enjoy the scavenger hunt so much because I feel free to interpret the prompt however I want. Really, the only rule is to limit yourself to only one image from your archives. The rest need to be taken during the prompt week. Of course, by linking up, I get to see many beautiful images that inspire me. It's amazing how we all are so different; we see things differently; we interpret prompts differently, but we all have a common interest that brings us together...photography.
Have A Happy Week!!!
I love your "repeating pattern" -- it just jumped out at me!

ReplyDeleteCathy - great set! I really love your repeating patterns - the mosss DOES look like tiny trees in a miniature fairy world. Standing Alone has a stark beauty with real emotion.
