This weeks prompts were: Simple, Grain, Transportation, Stitch and Bubble(s).
It was a rather busy week and I didn't think I would make the hunt this week but at the last minute I decided to see what I could come up with.
Ashley is going to think I'm "copying" her since last week we both used the exact same Scripture verse for one of the prompts and this week I've used the same type of image for Transportation that she used but I swear I'm not reading your mind Ashley!
Just a note that for this weeks prompts all my photos were uploaded and edited on PicMonkey using the Urban effect.
So let's get started:
SIMPLE: - Oh I struggled with this one trying to come up with an idea as to what qualified as simple.
In the end I went with this photo:
It expresses the "simple" joy of childhood and also how simply easy it was to find some of those eggs we thought we'd hidden so well!
GRAIN:
Technically speaking Popcorn is a "Grain" by product but I thought this made for a rather cool looking photo, especially as I caught the stream of butter cascading down onto the popcorn that my daughter was popping.TRANSPORTATION: Okay Ashley, seriously I wasn't copying your idea! One of Coleen's Hot Wheel Cars.
STITCH: This one stumped me, I don't sew worth diddly squat so stitching on a machine or by hand was out of the question for me. I resorted to an "archived" photo on this prompt. Way back from 2008 when our cat Harley had to have his stomach opened to remove a large rubber band, a twig and string to the tune of $800!!!
I wonder if they used, "cat gut" to stitch him up! (Just kidding, Harley).
BUBBLE(s): Taken on Easter Sunday of some Crayola Colored Bubbles that Coleen got in her Easter basket.
Up next week: Yellow, Something that made or makes you Smile, Ancient/Antique, Splash and In the Sun.
Great finds!
ReplyDeleteI almost had a popcorn shot for Grain, too! :)
I like your processing, I heard about picmonkey this week, will have to try it myself. Great set! I like simple the best have a great week
ReplyDeleteI like your processing, I read abot picmonkey this week , will have to check it out myself. great set, my fave is simple, I think you nailed it ! have a great week
ReplyDeleteGreat set for this week's hunt. Don't feel bad, I came 'this close' (in my best Get Smart imitation) to using a matchbox car - but it would have required me to dig through boxes - and that wasn't going to happen.
ReplyDeleteLove your simple joy photo....it brought a smile to my face.
ReplyDeleteLove that popcorn and those bubbles!!
ReplyDeleteLovely shots. Your bubbles are pretty, and as for transportation, I've seen a couple of matchbox shots, no worries. :--)
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. The popcorn and bubble shots are my favorite. I will admit that I'm a bit perplexed as to how the bubbles got on the grass and didn't immediately pop. Do the crayola ones have something special in them?
ReplyDeleteLovely bubbles and your grandgirlies face definitely says joy.
ReplyDeleteOh your poor Harley! And oh poor you too! $800!!
ReplyDeleteGreat stitch shot though, wondered if anyone would have that kind of stitch.
Love love love that transportation shot....so cool!
ReplyDeleteha ha - no, I don't think you're copying...great minds think alike!
ReplyDeleteWell done, Ida! The bubble shot is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThe Simplicity of childhood is always amazing.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. Love your bubbles and interesting picture for transportation. Grain on my page is of a rock not a tree but it was a good guess. Thanks
ReplyDeleteStitch. Ouch! Poor kitty.
ReplyDeleteHey Ida! So glad your kitty is ok! Love your simple shot, & that cute lil girl of yours! wishing you a happy week to you!
ReplyDeleteLove the bubble photo! And feel bad for kitty! :( Nice shots! I too use picmonkey!

You made me laugh with your Harley comment. Love your take on simple, lovely set Ida!
ReplyDeleteLove the colored bubbles! Poor kitty!
ReplyDeleteAwww- poor kitty. That was quite a list of objects removed.
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas for the prompts! I love your bubbles! Great colors reflected!
ReplyDeleteWonderful collection Ida. Harley is one lucky cat!
ReplyDeletePS -- the purple buds in my photo are Dames Rocket. :)
Oh, pretty bubbles! I have never seen colors bubble before.
ReplyDeleteGreat set, love your grain shot
ReplyDeleteHi Ida, I love the shot of Coleen. She looks so happy with her treasure in hand. Ouch! That was one expensive stomach ache your cat got. I could see eating the string and the twig by mistake, but what would possess Harley to eat a rubber band I wonder? It certainly would be chewy. The reflection in the bubbles are cool and that popcorn looks good enough to eat!
ReplyDeleteYour bubble shot is great, it is so hard to get a good bubble shot before they pop.
