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.
