Photo Scavenger Hunt: April

It's time once again for the monthly Scavenger Hunt organised by Greenthumb at Made with Love. I was down to the wire with a couple of the categories this month but I got there in the end.


A is for... : Angler. No, it's not a fisherman, it's an angler: someone who fishes with hook and bait (Oxford English Dictionary).


11am : Saturday 12 April, filling up at the petrol station.


Smooth : I spotted these glass benches/sculptures in Leeds. I think they might be lit up at night but they look just as good lit up by sunlight in the day.


Scale : My kitchen scales.


Tile : Mosaic tiles in the Victoria arcade, Leeds.


Logo : Possibly the most famous logo in the world?


Scrap : A scrap of paper marking one of the recipe choices for my cookery book challenge.


Match : Lighting my teacup candle with a match. I struggled with this one and none of the photos I had seemed right. In the end, I went with the obvious one, taken last night as we played around with poses.


Path : A cobbled path leading out of the woods.


Layers :  Layers and layers of rolls of fabric on a market stall - swoon!


Carry : Two young men carrying sports bags. I did wonder what passers-by were thinking as I followed them down the street pointing the camera...


Truck : An old fashioned truck spotted in Preston.

Hope you enjoyed my selection. Why not join in with us in May? It's great fun and completely free!

  3. Your angler is a super shot!!! We have loads of them in our local park but they don't look as serene as him! I love your scrap paper and mosaics always make me swoon. As for swooning- whoa, LOVE that scrummy material!x

  7. Nicely done, Julie! I loved your match! So obvious, but I never thought of it. Matches were so necessary when I was growing up, and now I rarely light one. I loved that old truck ~ what a great shot! Take care!

  8. Yes, I liked your selections. I really liked that cobbled path. It might me want to walk there and made me "homesick" for England.

  9. Great photos Julie. I like the truck most of all but I like them all. I really would like to visit the market stall with the fabrics.

  10. I really love your truck - was dreaming of seeing something like that. The glass sculpture/bench and tiles from Leeds are good finds and thanks for the definition of angler - never knew the difference.

  13. I enjoyed looking at your great selection of photos - from beginning to end. The angler was a super choice, and what lovely layers of fabric. I could imagine walking along that path being drawn to the circular exit! Great vintage truck!
