A Photo a Week: Motion
Inspired by Lens-Artists Challenge #85: Treasure Hunt
This week we’re going on a Treasure Hunt! The challenge is to search for specific items – either from your archives or newly captured – from the list below. Extra credit items are a bit more challenging. Focus on quality over quantity and hit us with your best shot(s)!

A photo scavenger hunt!
This reminds me of party activities when I was a kid – going house to house asking for odd items. Like a feather or a paper clip. We also searched for items in the yard. The object of the game was to complete your collection before anyone else did.
For this challenge, I scavenged through my archives and found these photos.
A bird…painted on the side of a building in Burlington, Vermont.
A dog…missing his humans on Christmas Day in Washington, DC. (also substituting for a person in the “expressive portrait” category).
A waterfall…flowing in a park in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
Guitars in the making at the Martin Guitar Factory…in Nazareth, Pennsylvania.
A fish at the entrance to a seascape…in Hampton Beach, New Hampshire.
A sunset behind a mountain landscape. Boats settled in for the night…in North Ferrisburgh, Vermont.
The End
Cee’s challenge topic this week: 1 item or the Number One
During a cruise to Bermuda in 2008, I enjoyed the beautiful scenery both on and off the ship.
One day, I noticed this bird perched on the ship’s rail. All by itself. Taking in the sun’s rays.
Perhaps sensing that I was not an experienced bird photographer, it held still long enough for me to take this picture. Obviously used to tourists and enjoying the attention.
I have no idea what kind of bird it was. I welcome any ideas!
