Scavenger Hunt Sunday


WATER DROPS OR WATER  FLOWING
somewhere in Tennessee last Monday.  No, I was not the driver!   Water droplets cover the windshield as we make our way through the foggy mountains.  my favorite driving conditions.  NOT!


FAITHFULNESS
2 lifetime friends love to curl up next to each other in a sun puddle.


THEN AND NOW
The rock is ancient, has been around for a lot of "thens."  The colored and crispy-brown leaves are new.


FINGERTIPS
This praying mantis was crawling on my front door, no doubt enjoying the warm sunshine.  Not fingertips in the human sense, yet performing some of the same functions.


one item from the Fall Bucket List*: NATURE WALK
hiking on Whiteside Mountain in North Carolina  (See another photo from that hike HERE.)
*See Sarah Halstead's Fall Bucket List HERE.



This is a very fun meme hostessed by Ashley Sisk in which 5 prompts are given and one must then take a photo to illustrate each one.  Come see how others have interpreted these words HERE!  (And you'll get to see photos of Ashley's newly born baby girl!)  You have till Tuesday, October 16 at midnight EST to join in.

Next week's words are: 
1.  faceless portrait (aim for a selfie)
2.  orange or PINK in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month
3.  view from the Top
4.  cozy
5.  stacked

  5. the praying mantis is very cool... i'd say they do have fingers (perhaps not fingertips)... how were you able to get so close?

  7. Neat faithfulness picture! My little dog loves to sleep in the sunbeam too. I like the stone steps in your nature walk photo. Autumn is a beautiful time of year to take photos.

    My top picks: Fingertips - Love your perspective and it's a great shot of the mantis.
