Another week in the books, and another Scavenger Hunt Sunday is upon us. Been a bit under the weather, so let's get to it. I'd like to thank Ashley at Ramblings and Photos for Scavenger Hunt Sunday. It was the very first link-up I joined with, and it is still my favorite over 6 months later. For someone with a relatively short attention span...I'd consider that a long term relationship.
1. Footwear
Like a mom who can't pick her favorite child...I was facing my own Sophie's Choice in footwear. What would Meryl Streep do? Then along came this little girl at our church bowling outing, skipping by in her bowling shoes. The burden had been lifted from my shoulders, but I only had time to react and get ONE shot! I still don't understand why they can't design bowling shoes with a bit of a heel...and in a nice nude patent leather to accentuate and elongate the leg!
2. Strike a Pose
Homer (aka/Skipper)...in a sunspot. Strike a pose - Vogue, Vogue, Vogue.
3. Shiny
I love my shiny and sparkly Mercury Glass. It started off as Christmas decor, but it has now taken up permanent residence on my mantle.
4. Color me Green
Stems have feelings too.
5. Hobby
(self portrait #7 in 52 week project)
So MANY of my hobbies here: Cooking, Reading Cook Books/Magazines, and....daydreaming. But I used my MAIN hobby to capture them all. Ya gotta "Express Yourself" hey, hey, hey, hey.
I hope you all have a relaxing Sunday. I hear there is something called the "Super Bowl" going on today. Personally, my idea of a "Super Bowl" is a toilet that cleans itself, but I don't think Madonna would want to perform a half-time show for that. Would love see the Material Girl do it tho!

I LOVE the shot of the pup ..possibly because I'm suffering from major puppy cravings?! Must. Get. New. Puppy!
ReplyDeleteThat pose is so adorable. The whole set is great actually.
ReplyDeleteBesides your pictures, I always love your writing. You always make me laugh:) The first picture is awesome. Also like the dog and selfie a lot.
ReplyDeleteOh your pose shot is so cute. I love your green shot too.
ReplyDeleteLove your Madonna set :) Each and every one. The end!
ReplyDeleteAs always your post made me smile. I love your take on color me green and footwear. Bowling shoes would be so much cooler if they matched my outfit! My favorite picture is your pose picture! Great set of pictures!

ReplyDeleteLove the self portrait and your dog "strike a pose" image. And you crack me up! Vogue, Vogue, Vogue. LOL... Great set this week! :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't get around to doing SH photos this week, was just too busy, but I did post a photo over on Nancy's link. I hope to be back to SH next Sunday, though. :)
These are stunning and oh my! "Strike a pose" is adorable!
ReplyDeleteI love the shot of your dog and your selfie awesome series
ReplyDeleteAll of your shots are amazing my friend. But your puppy shot is adorable. I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't get scavenging in time this week to take part - rats! Love the focus on the green shot (playing with new lens I would guess :O)), and the hobby one too. But I just adore the detail, comp and processing on the shot of Homer - what a gorgeous face!
ReplyDeleteYou have put together an amazing set this week, Kathy. Love the bowling shoes, Homer has stolen my heart, your green is so fresh and simple. Love the selfie. Oh yes, you are always good for a giggle too.
ReplyDeleteLove your strike a pose shot hands down. As well as your colour me green capture. Always a pleasure popping in - ta.
ReplyDeleteWOW...AGAIN!
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE the mercury glass! Mine has taken permanent residence as well! The stem shot is SO simple yet extremely beautiful!
And..Homer..LOVE IT!
As usual..GREAT set Kathy!
hee hee!! I'd love one of those Super Bowls, too ;) Thankfully, Finland doesn't tend to get as fanatic over sports...you'll get a bit of excitement over World Cup hockey, especially if it's a game against Sweden, but nothing approaching the Super Bowl frenzy in the States. Love how Homer/Skipper was so Madonna inspired ;)...and your selfie is absolutely fabulous!!!
ReplyDeleteI think they are all fantastic.
ReplyDeleteGreat set, they're all fantastic, and as always I love your writing! I love your "strike a pose", it's fabulous!
ReplyDeleteLove your dog! Our dogs always laid in sun spots! And your mercury glass is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGoodness! That pose is so, so sweet. Great choices, Kathy!
ReplyDeleteI love your composition in these shots - especially how you captured footwear.
ReplyDeleteYou know, Madonna....she's always looking for publicity, so don't rule that Super Bowl idea of yours out.
ReplyDeleteI always laugh when I read you-Sophie's Choice of shoes. Love that hound pose (and Tula gets called "Skip" amongst several other things too).
Great selfie. I think you're much more creative than I am with that. I'm going to have to step it up. Happy day.
Oh my- that green shot is fabulous Kathy!
ReplyDeleteOkay had my FIX of great photography and lots of smiles! I had forgotten Super Bowl Sunday..thanks a lot, now I have to worry about how loud my husband will have the TV going!! I think I might go sit in the car. Madonna, Madonna who?
ReplyDeleteKidding aside your photos are the best...but best of all I love the adorable bowling shoe...all bright against the black and white...clever clever...and mercury glass, isn't it the best. Your photo shows its glimmeringst !!!
Oh, I did the scavenger hunt for the first time, but need to up the work for better photographs....smiles: sharon
Mornin' Kathy, great post, great shots, greatness abounds.....:)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy this beautiful day.
