Scavenger Hunt Sunday - July 15, 2012

It's time for the "Hunt" and guess who's back!  Yep, Ashley (Ramblings and Photos) is once again hosting the hunt.  A big thanks to Sarah Halstead for taking over for a few weeks after Ashly had her baby.
This weeks Prompts were: Water, Petal, Fresh, Eight, and Calm.

So are you ready to get started...


WATER:  - I had planned to use a totally different photo for this prompt but then at the last minute I decide to go with this one.

This little fountain is in the courtyard area of the Clinic where I get my allergy shots.  Coleen always wants to toss pennies in and if you look closely you can see a few pennies in the top level of the fountain.












PETAL:

For this prompt I took bunches of flower photos which all of course had petals in them but I wanted to focus on just a single petal so I went with this shot that I took the other night while sitting out in our driveway. 
Piglet, the cat we take care of was laying in the driveway and this petal off my Clematis  was nearby and he started playing with it.  I snapped a shot and thought it worked pretty well for the prompt.

FRESH:

One of the great things about living where I do is that there is always "Fresh" local fruit to enjoy in the summer.  This is a Blackberry Dessert made with fresh blackberries and fresh out of the oven.
It's delicious and the recipe can be found here:
although it uses raspberries but you can substitute the blackberries and it works just as well.  You might want to add just a little more sugar to the recipe (I mixed some into the blackberries) then it calls for since they are tarter then raspberries.

EIGHT: This one stumped me a little because I didn't want to just take a picture of 8 objects and yet I wanted something that showcased the number.  I happened to be looking through my photos from this week when I noticed this one and knew it would be perfect for the prompt.

Coleen is practicing her dives and just happened to be in Lane 8 in the pool!

























CALM:

This is one of our cats, Harley looking mighty calm there in that window.  He loves sleeping there in the sunshine.





















So that's it for this week.  Don't forget to pop in and check out the other participants entries and see what they came up with for the prompts.  Have a great day.
