Scavenger Hunt Sunday

Hip, hip, hooray!!

It's Sunday, and you know what that means . . .

It's time to pull out our bag of scavenger hunt items,
and lay them on the table.

So here are the prompts and what I found:

1. Words: Words are very powerful and extremely encouraging. This picture is of a note that one of my two
    leaders from a bible study gave me along with the box. I can't remember what they called the box, but it
    is for collecting words of encouragement we receive so that we can go back through them on the days
    that we forget or need to be uplifted. I had forgotten about this box until this prompt, and not because I
    haven't needed the words, I guess I just got out of the habit of putting them in there. I won't be forgetting -
    it was so nice to read them again!




2. Under:  Sometimes it's a little scary to be under a bird, if you know what I mean, especially when it's a
    flock of them - this happened to be the only one I managed to capture.



 3. Orange: Once again I found another prompt at my favorite nursery. I can just imagine these hanging
     around a Tiki hut by the side of a pool while sipping a drink with an umbrella! ; )




4. Fly:  Yep, you should know by now that I will take every opportunity to photograph a bug if I can make
    it work with the prompt! Just look at how cute his little shadow is!





5. Always look on the bright side: WARNING, you might need sunglasses! I've been practicing my sunflares
    and starbursts and trying not to blind myself at the same time! (Whew ) Remember, if you can't find the
    bright side just keep turning around, eventually you'll find it!


I highly encourage you to continue the scavenger hunt here, you won't be disappointed

Hope your weekend is great!

Love, Kim
XO

  2. I used my 40mm macro lens to get the fly . . . and was super lucky he didn't 'fly' away since I have to get soooo close with that lens.

  6. wow I love the details in that fly - it's not often they stay around long enough for a photo. My favourites are word because of the focus and fly as you've got the wings illuminated with the sunlight around the edges.

  10. You nailed this set this week Kim! The "under" prompt I love how you captured the light on the other side of the one wing. What a wonderful idea that "encouragement box" is. And I like your perspective in the capture too. Great sun flare! And I REALLY like your commentary this week too....Kudos!
