August Photo a Day – Visitor
…thanks to City Sonnets for hosting the August Photo a Day
The theme for August 10th was ‘visitor’. While at the beach up at the cottage we were graced with the presence of this gull. He actually came quite close to where we were lounging. They’re a pretty fearless bird. I’m sure he was hoping we had some food to share with him.

…thanks to Irene for hosting Macro Monday
I’m posting the photos taken from a distance first and then I will show you the macro shots. I was at the cottage for five days and had fun looking for macro subjects.

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge – Week 1 – Pick a Topic from This Photo
…thanks to Cee for this unusual theme for the Fun Foto Challenge
Here is the photo Cee chose for us to use as inspiration.
We can use anything in the photo, i.e., vintage car, bridge, road, grass, trees, people, flowers, etc.
Lens Artists Challenge – #86 – Treasure Hunt
….thanks to Travels and Trifles for this week’s theme
This week’s theme is very long and detailed so I’m cutting and pasting the instructions here:
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)!
- Challenge Items: Sunrise and/or sunset, Something cold and/or hot, a bird, a dog, a funny sign, a bicycle, a seascape and/or mountain landscape, a rainbow, a church, a musical instrument, a boat, a plane, a waterfall
- Extra Credit Items: An expressive portrait of one or more people, a very unusual place, knitting or sewing, a fish, an animal you don’t normally see, a bucket, a hammer, a street performer, a double rainbow, multiple challenge items in a single image. My opening image, for example, includes a sunrise, a seascape and birds in a single shot. See how easy it is?! 😀
