Scavenger Hunt Sunday - August 31, 2014

Hello & Welcome.  -  I'm back today to join Ashley (Ramblings and Photos) for her wonderful Meme,  SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY.

I've been absent for a few months and really wanted to
join in on the fun again so let's get started.

The prompts this week were:  Back to School, Family, Books, Portrait and Detail.

BACK TO SCHOOL:  School doesn't start here until Tuesday so I didn't get any photo's of Coleen heading back to school for this prompt.  Instead....


The fresh painted SCHOOL crossing sign on the street.
 
 
FAMILY:  I took this at the concert the other night.
 


Coleen,  Kelly (my new Son-in-law) and my hubby, Mike.  They all seem to have that (huh? glazed look on their faces.)  That's my FAMILY!
 
BOOKS:  This one stumped me a little but here is my interpretation...
 
 

 Most of these Movies were at one time BOOKS.

PORTRAIT:


I took this PORTRAIT photo of Spooky-boo the other day and added a frame so it would look more like an actual portrait.
 
 
DETAIL:
 

 I love how the Black and White processing really brought out the DETAIL

on this spent flower head.  I was trying out some Black and White photography today and this was one of the photos that I took.

  7. Hi Ida, I like that you didn't take the prompts literally in some cases and did things like take a picture of movies that were books. I like that family portrait! They do look a bit surprised. The cat portrait is really beautiful.

  8. Lovely photos, Ida. Your flower head in black and white is stunning. It's strange as I usually love, love, love the colour of the flowers, but you're absolutely right: the black and white makes us focus on the small details of the flower's petals. Awesome! All the best, Bonny

  19. I like all of your pictures, but I am especially taken with Spooky-Boo. Not sure why, but I have a soft spot for cat photographs. Have a great week and happy school wishes to Colleen.

  24. Great photos. I am glad you are back. I have had a rough time keeping up with SHS myself over the past few months. The family shot is great. Your book photos makes me want to watch the Love Comes Softly series again. I cry all the way through them!
