Scavenger Hunt Sunday - June 2, 2013



Hello! -  Hope you have had a great week.  It's been pretty decent here for the most part.  No real major disaster's to deal with and halfway decent weather.  -  So without further ado let's get on with Scavenger Hunt Sunday. - This week Ashley left it wide open for the prompts.  It's Photographer's Choice for all 5 prompts.  Easy peasy huh!  -  Click to Enlarge photo's.



#1 - It's our pug, Cricket.  It's so hard to get her to stand still for pictures so when I get a decent one I'm excited about it.  Plus in this shot I got her curly little tail which I find adorable.  Love how shiny her coat looks in this shot.


#2 - Flowers from my garden.  This one is a Wartburg Star Aster (there are geraniums, petunia's and marigolds in the background.)

 
#3 - Some wild grasses and a local fishing pond.

 
 
#4 - A view taken from the park where the fishing pond is located.  The building in the background is the Fair Pavilion building.  Off to the left a bunch of kids were playing soccer at the Middle school and our Blue Mountains are in the background as well.  Pretty scene.

 
 
#5 - I've always wanted to attend a Roller Derby match and thankfully we have a local team here in Wally World called the,  Walla Walla Sweets and tonight was their opening match.  Sadly the team lost 146-155 in the last 45 seconds of the match.  Better then the Junior Team which played prior to the adults.  They got their butts whooped.
 
 
 
 
Don't forget to stop by Ashley's blog and check out the other participants entries for the Hunt.  Have a great week.

  1. A great set Ida!
    Your flower garden must be very lovely. I love these asters.
    I almost posted a photo of the grasses in my backyard. It was evening and the light was good. :)
    I used to watch Roller Derby with my Grandparents. My Pap loved it and I think Grandma just put up with it! Great shot!

    Nicely done!

  9. Ida,
    I understand the few and far between opportunities to capture a shot of a wiggly dog. My Boston is next to impossible! Cricket looks like a sweetheart.

    Beautiful garden flowers!

  23. OMG. the face on your pug Cricket is...OMG...I want to cuddle with her, just too cute. And yes, what a great curly tail.

    Love the wild grasses near the pond, I could sit there for hours and enjoy the view. Roller Derby is so fascinating to me, I can't play, but would love to watch.

  24. Great shots! Beautiful flowers--I'm a little jealous, because the only flowers I have growing so far are the ones on some overgrown lettuce in my garden. ;) Everything else is off to a sloooooooow start.
