Scavenger Hunt Sunday | March 11, 2012

I really loved this weeks prompts.  I'm not sure why, but I did.  I found myself starting to fill in the prompts on last Sunday.  Excited much?  Maybe.  I think the opportunity arose that day and I took it.  It helps to have chocolate in the house and a candle burning too.

Water
Despite what I just wrote, I did have trouble with this prompt.  And before I knew it it was Saturday evening and I was out of time.  So this is from the archives from 4 1/2 years ago during a trip to Colorado.  Probably THE best vacation ever.

Light
Confession...I almost never use manual on my camera.  (Something I really want to use more in the future.)  I practiced on this photo.  It turned out dark, but I liked it because it showed off the light of the flame.  Just what I was going for!  And I like that you can see a little bit of light reflecting at the bottom of the jar.  Gives it some depth without making it obvious.

Chocolate
We went through these much faster than I'd like to admit :)

Animal
Part of my 52 week project.  I love everything about this photo.  And this pup!  I took it from my crappy 3g iPhone (yes, I know I need to update.)

Crowded
Taken last week (but I haven't shared it) when dad and I went train chasing.

  4. First, your dog is really cute! I love the color of the water in the first shot. And I really like the way your candle picture turned out. I am also somebody who basically never shoots in manual mode, so I'm impressed with your very good practice shot. :)

  8. I just laughed about going through the chocolate : ) I bought a box of truffles at the market this week and like one day later they were gone...: ) sadly, I hadn't even told anyone about them so that means I ate the entire box. Darn it! Must not bring those into the house again!

  10. Very enjoyable; it is true that the Easter candy is already out there (and I've been so good about ignoring it's call) - but I just love your animal shot.
