Hello there!
It was a bit of a last minute scramble to assemble scavenger hunt photos (organised by the fabulous Greenthumb!), so I am a bit behind but hope you find something of interest here:
February's List was the following lot:
F is for ?
...fish! Flippin', frightening, ferocious fish!
3pm
Around 3pm of the Thursday of half-term, we were walking to Ely cathedral.
Grain
It was admittedly the cute praying squirrel that I was taking this shot of, but the tree had an interesting grain (not entirely sure I am using that word in the right context? Is the grain the inside of the tree or can it be any textured surface. I'm thinking I am now wrong. Never mind, keep looking at the squirrel!
Lamp
Egregious photo but great lamp! What a fun light-fitting!
Clock
Ah, the best clock of them all! Big Ben (if the bell is called Ben, what's the clock called?)
Here it is from another angle!
Honey
I sadly have no honey shot. I didn't want to photograph the scabby pots in my cupboard but I will tell you a little honey story. My granddad used to buy me books as a child if I bottled honey for him. So patiently, I would sit with the jars, watching the honey ooze from the large container full of combs, watching it trickle in ever-beguiling patterns, playing on the surface like an ice-skater performing triple lutzes in perpetuity and then vanishing away to a level surface. It was a pleasant way of earning money in order to buy Famous Five books. I can now look at my book collection and tell you which ones were earnt by bottling honey! Pity I couldn' t get a shot of those patterns as the jar filled- that would be an amazing photo!
Fountain
I was really hoping for a photo of the fountains in Trafalgar square but sadly, some Russian market was happening so it was closed off! Here's the fountain in my local park. It's featured in 2 scavenger hunts already. I like it!
Round
DId you know that BA don't own the London Eye anymore? Apparently, it is the not-so-easy-to-say, EDF energy London Eye now. A bit like the now annoying Abellio Greater Anglia!
Shadow
The beach at Aldeburgh was suddenly cast over with shadow from the right when that lugubrious cloud arrived to menace the beach walkers.
Group
I loved this part of the river Thames!!! All those interesting and curious-looking buildings that are all so different, grouped together!
Repurpose
Various items and metals were repurposed for this amazing Water Clock on Southwold pier. Oh look, it's another clock!
Clouds
The sky was amazing here. Pity there was a window between me and it!
Hope you enjoyed my shots and please visit the link to see some great photos from the other participants!x
