Another scavenger hunt this week, and I almost sat this one out because I was having a hard time deciding what to shoot. I don't think they turned out too bad, but you'll have to excuse the snark. :)
1. Landscape -- Had to go to the archives for this one. Taken in Colorado back in 2008, this is one of my favorite shots from our week out there. Taken with the 35mm SLR, I just can't beat that camera!
2. Powerlines -- Hee.
What?! All our lines are run underground, it makes sense to me! :)
Okay, okay, fine. Is this better? I took this one with my cell phone, looking directly into the sun. I couldn't even see the screen, so I was happy to have a decent picture come out of it.
3. Newspaper -- I cut this out of a paper bag that was made to look like an old newspaper ad. I originally picked this particular part because of the Gunsmiths, but thought the "Wanted, Steady Woman, A Thorough Good Cook" part was pretty funny too. The entire ad says, "Wanted for a family in the country, a sensible well educated steady woman, qualified to superintend a family, and a thorough good cook (...) meat, pastry, preserves, etc. She will have a proper assistant in the kitchen, and every reasonable encouragement given to her from the family, according to her qualifications and integrity."
4. Pose -- Hmmm...I know! Quick, Raven, play dead!
Good girl! :)
No, not a good enough pose for you? You're right, she was just dead tired after a nice long walk.
Okay, how about this? I guarantee she didn't enjoy being under that blanket very long, but she was a good girl & listened to Mommy when I told her to just relax & lay still. You can tell she's pouting.
Still not a good enough pose for you? Okay, this is my final try!
If that's not good enough, I don't know what is. :)
5. Hobby -- This is obviously a VERY small portion of my fabric.
I hope you enjoyed my interpretation of this week's scavenger hunt items! Make sure you head over to Ramblings & Photos to check out the rest of this week's pictures.
Until next time...
What a great and entertaining post! The pictures of Raven made me laugh out loud!! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteyour dog... and food on his nose.. was very funny
ReplyDeleteThe dog is too cute! Your dog looks like my puppy...just a little older! We have a 4 month old Black Lab / Boxer Mix (Boxadore). Please feel free to come over and train her to keep the food on her nose until we say it's OK! Right now, I have a hard enough time training her to not jump! :-) Hopefully with time.
ReplyDeleteI think you did a great job. I love Raven, so adorable. Your landscape picture is so neat.
ReplyDeleteThose are some fabulous materials in your craft shot and your dog is so sweet. We can NOT get ours to let us balance anything on her nose. Sigh.
ReplyDeletehahaha I'm glad you didn't sit out this week, these all made me smile. I love the add for a steady woman!
ReplyDeleteOnce again great! I love your shots of Raven! So cute!
ReplyDeleteGreat job this week - so glad you didn't sit out this one. Your landscape photo is great and I love your photoshoot with Raven. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI love car mirror pictures. Great job! I also really love your dog with the food on his nose.
ReplyDeleteRaven is just adorable. I think she and my Ellee would have a blast together.
ReplyDeleteI love your newspaper shot. The "good cook" part would so disqualify me!
Great job!
I simply LOVE your pose series! Such a cute pup! And your hobby shot brought a smile to face-you found some wonderful fabrics. I love prints but have yet to break out the sewing machine and give it a shot. You've inspired me to give it a go!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I almost used my dog for pose since he is the only one who will actually pose for me. Super cute!
ReplyDeleteI love that dog, how cute is he. Your other shots are fantstic..
ReplyDeleteCreative ideas for all these shots, well done!
ReplyDeleteI love the image for Pose, how adorable is that?!?
hahhhha. LOVE that dog! made me laugh.. great shots
ReplyDeletegreat entries. I love the pictures of your doggy. My friends have a black lab called Raven too!
ReplyDeletewow! that landscape shot is killer! It almost looks too good to be real! I also like your power lines - I can't believe you took that with your phone! AND I almost took a picture of the ground too, because ours are underground as well. :)
