Scavenger Hunt Sunday



Oh this was a long week, always is when the husband is gone on business.
But somehow the mice get off scott free when the cats away, and I just get more work! ; )
And, it seems my lack of sleep gave me some brain fog which creeped into my motivation.
Okay, that's just my excuse this week - that's my story and I'm stickin' to it!

[ rainbow ]
Yep, had a few ideas for this, but waited til the last minute. So, you get the rainbow of flowers
waiting to be planted in the garden....angelonia, zinnia, verbena, and penta.



[ fluffy ]

A light and airy dandelion . . . fluffy.


[ letters ]

Not a great photo here, but if you have ever been to Texas and wondered why on earth we have such big drains on the side of the streets, this would be why. Hiding in there somewhere, besides backyards and swing sets is the all of 5-10' wide creek that has overflowed its banks making it difficult to read the sign (with letters, of course). When they give flash flood warnings they aren't kidding, and this was not days worth of rain, but hours!! 




[ metal ]
An old truck, that I'm sure has more metal than the ones made today.



[ trees ]
Somehow trees just look great with some fog, well that and a little help with some texture.


That wraps up this scavenger hunt. Be sure to head on over to Ashley's to follow the rest
of the hunt - there is always good stuff to be found.

Love, Kim
XO

I love all these shots, I can't even pick a favorite. I hate it when my husband is away on business too.

Holy Moly Kim...I'm giving you a standing ovation! Can't believe you didn't have the "time" to devote to this week's hunt! :)

Brenda said...

Kim - what a great collection of images - I can't imagine what you wouuld have created with "time" :)

The delicate dandelion fluff - like tiny stars. I love the dark center, pulling us into the details of the image. Love the reflections on the truck and your down low point-of-view. And yes, the fog and texture create such a mysterious feeling of glowing beauty.

That flood photo makes me think... skeeters! ; ) The flower picture is just so stunningly beautiful. It's my favorite color palette I think.

Hope you get some rest and hubby is home soon!
