Scavenger Hunt Sunday - October 26, 2014

  Welcome.  -  Won't you join me on a little hunt...
Yes it's time for SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY hosted by the wonderful and talented Ashley from, (Ramblings and Photos).

This weeks prompts were:  Paint, Pumpkin, Family, Looking Cute and Photographers Choice.

PAINT:

We have a house in our neighborhood that is being repainted.  This house is sort of the "odd" house in the neighborhood to start out with since it's size is so much larger then any of the other homes so it looks a bit out of place.   Changing the color scheme didn't help any.  What do you think of this color combo together?
 

 I should add though that the fancy emblem in the middle has now been painted white which helps a little but for me the pale soft yellow and the bright turquoise just don't jive.

PUMPKIN:  Or in this case.....Pumpkins.


Yes you've seen this truck before as I photograph it every year when we go to the pumpkin patch.  I liked how they had the one lone pumpkin sitting on the fender of the truck.

FAMILY: 


Coleen is of course family and so is our sweet cat, Spooky-Boo and for Coleen all of her stuffed animals are "family" too.

LOOKING CUTE:  - The above photo could fit this prompt but I thought I'd give you this instead:


Spooky-Boo peeking at me from the stair landing.  I think he's looking pretty cute.

PHOTOGRAPHERS CHOICE:


I spotted these leaves on a tree this week while walking around the block.  I loved the colors and the way the branch looks.  Fall is so fleeting but the memories will last when you capture them this way. So this is my choice to share for the prompt.

That's it for this weeks hunt.  I hope you've enjoyed your stay.

Here is the list of prompts for next week if you want to participate.
  • 1. Dress Up
  • 2. Candy
  • 3. Fall Colors
  • 4. Trick or Treat
  • 5. Photographer’s Choice

  • Don't forget to stop in at Ashley's blog and check out the other participants links.  -  Have a great day.

    8. That is a pretty turquoise on that house. Growing up there was a house that was a bright purple with bright pink shutters...always thought that was an odd choice of colors for that house.

      Blessings bed has many times looked like Colleens :) Spooky-boo is cute...how is Ghost doing?

      I'd like to take some close ups of that old truck.

      Such pretty leaves.

    11. Interesting choice with the house painting. Turquoise is a color I love, but maybe not on that house.

    14. Around here those colors would appear all over, but that much turquoise can be a bit daunting. I love the pumpkin photo.

    15. Love that picture of Spooky-Boo! Of course the one with Coleen is also adorable. Love that truck! Great editing for that shot.

    16. Hi Ida,
      Spooky-Boo is definitely adorably cute.
      I love your quote by John Burroughs.
      It certainly is the most profound thing I have read today.

      Have a Great Week!

      Peace :)

    17. I love that old truck. The single pumpkin on the hood is a nice touch. Your family shot with all the animals is nice. It makes me think of my youngest daughter. The looking cute shot is adorable!

    20. Stunning photos, Ida. I love your pumpkin truck: that's a fabulously composed shot. And I love Spooky Boo and Coleen. They both look so very pretty and adorable. And what a large family of cuddly toys Coleen has. She looks very happy in the middle of them. A really heart-warming autumn post. All the best, Bonny

    21. Stopping by from the linkup!
      I love the cat picture. Stuffed animals are always fun. I'm 26, and I do have a handful at my apartment. I left the others behind at my parents house... until I have more space to have them with me.
      The paint job on the house is beautiful.
      And the old truck really adds to the photo.

      Have a great day!

    22. As always, a wonderful collection of images! I thought the truck and pumpkins was going to be my favourite, but then I scrolled down to the one of Coleen and the cat and changed my mind! The Spooky-boo portrait is gorgeous, too.

    23. Wonderful! I love them all, but the quote in the last photo really touched me.

    29. yeah,not feeling the bright blue and soft yellow. they are normally colours I might like together, but perhaps not on a house.
      Love that old truck. that is a perfect subject to photograph.
      ugh - I've been sick this week and I still have to get pumpkins for Friday AND carve them.
      Leaves - those I got LOTS of.
