Scavenger Hunt Sunday | 03.18.12

Filed Under: Family, Photography Tagged With: scavenger hunt sunday

Hello friends. We have been busy enjoying this nice weather. I have also been doing some spring cleaning and selling some items. I love when I can clean stuff out and make a little money back. I still have sooo much stuff to get rid of. We are selling our 55 gallon fish tank this week and my cousin is coming to paint our dining room. I will be busy prepping that today. There are some holes in the wall I need to fill and stuff that needs to be moved out of the way. I also have to go pick out paint. eeekkk! I really want to paint the living room too but I think it would just be too much right now. Both the living room and dining room are a dark burgundy. I am looking forward to having something more bright and to break the two rooms up a little bit.

Anyways here are my interpretations this week. 

Vintage

I loved this shot of Dustyn. I used Pioneer Woman’s Old West action on it. It sort of looks vintagey. You can see a real vintage edit with this weeks Tutorial Tuesday. Don’t forget to link up.

Word Quote

Spring is here and the trees are awakening. Yay for green leaves.

Natures Own

I just love how dainty this is. You can find the most beautiful stuff in nature.

People

My three favorite people here on earth. These are three different silhouette shots then I shared last Monday. I know I still need to practice but I am in love with the moments I captured.

Photographer’s Choice

I am quite proud of this shot. No, it is not anywhere near perfect, but I did shoot it while the bee was flying with my 35mm lens manual focus. I really need to work on my manual focusing.

Linking up with Scavenger Hunt Sunday, Simple Things, Sunday Snapshot, Macro Monday, and then she snapped
