SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY 11.27.11

CANDELABRA FOLIAGE @ BIG BEAR LAKE
I just love participating in SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY... it helps create "balance" in a busy week. Often JPE helps by noticing a photo opp & getting my camera... always wanting the best for me. I'm so T-H-A-N-K-F-U-L to be part of his life!


This week JPE & I spent most of our Thanksgiving Break at Big Bear Lake, CA --- with 14 individuals... ages 8 to 87... most from various locations in CA, but three traveled from Cinncinati, OH. iNcREdiBLe visit!


I limited my pictures to the ones taken at our Thanksgiving Family Reunion at Big Bear Lake... Unfortunately, I didn't take as many as I thought... distracted by conversation, cooking, clean-up and cards.


photos for the week: Waiting, Foliage, Candid, Knife Fork or Spoon & Rule of Thirds.
WAITING
Someone is WAITING for a fish to jump on the line!
FOLIAGE
This candleholder was frozen solid when we arrived Monday night. Late Tuesday, the ice had melted leaving an example of the beautiful Autumn FOLIAGE behind.
CANDID
She doesn't like to lose... Loved this CANDID shot of Lydia.  Here's another shot of Lydia playing this game with her cousins...
KNIFE FORK or SPOON
Pumpkin pie & Legos for breakfast... had to search for a clean SPOON!
RULE OF THIRDS
(taken by JPE)
This might be a stretch... I was thinking this qualifies as RULE of THIRDS, but the more I look at it, I don't think so?!!? But, you can LEARN MORE ABOUT RULE OF THIRDS HERE!


Our visit was fabulous! bittersweet!! (we don't know if the GUEST OF HONOR will be healthy enough for another trip to California)...


Stop by ASHLEY'S for this week's SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY participants. 


Remember, to post your photos by Tues (midnight EST).

    I love your thirds shot. I too wasn't sure about thirds, I get the concept, but didn't have a recent one, and just too lazy to dig through the archives. :-) Nice set of photos.

    That last shot is beautiful...the colors are amazing. Haha...love your explanation of your "waiting" prompt. That is how "I" would fish too :). Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

    I think your first picture is a stronger Thirds shot (in fact that's what I thought it was going to be). You actually have the lantern pretty much in the "sweet spot" of 1/3 both vertically and horizontally. Great images.
