Scavenger Hunt Sunday (10/21/12 edition)...

What a week.  I've come to the conclusion that I am waaaaaay too old to have a teenager, MAMA MIA!!! It seriously gets in the way of "spare time", if ya know what I mean.  Fashionably late to the party this week.  But I AM here, and I'll just pat myself on the back for that little accomplishment.  This week's prompts are:  Orange or Pink, Faceless Portrait (aim for a self portrait), View From the Top, Cozy, and Stacked.


1.  Orange or Pink


"Orange"
Valley Forge National Park
(linked to:  Nurture Photography Autumn Challenge)


2.  Faceless Portrait


"Moi"
(linked to:  In the Picture)



3.  View From the Top


"Acorn Reflections"
Valley Forge National Park
(linked to:  Your Sunday Best, Weekly Top Shot)


Found this lone acorn sitting atop a marble bench at Valley Forge National Park.  Loved how I got the reflection of the white birch tree and fall foliage by my view from the top.



4.  Cozy


"Arm in Arm"
Philadephia Art Museum
(linked to:  Sundays in my City)



5.  Stacked


"Linked"
Valley Forge National Park


Found the texture of these linked and stacked chains so beautiful.



Wow, very short and sweet this week...how unlike me!!!!  Gotta run.  Make sure you get a chance to hop on over to Ashley's Ramblings and Photos to check out all the other Scavenger Hunt Sunday submissions.  And as always...thank you sooooo much for taking the time to stop by and commenting.  Happy Sunday...

--Kathy

    Beautiful! I knew that was by the art museum! I just love that part of Philly, I used to climb on the rocks whenever we visited! Have a less-teen-drama-filled-week!

    Better "late" then Never and well worth the wait.
    You have some fabulous photo's here. I love the wonderful colors of fall and your Orange shot shows them off beautifully.
    Faceless Portrait is really lovely. I like the tones and textures in this shot.
    View From Above - Fabulous and I also like the trees in reflected in the background.
    Cozy is really sweet.
    Stacked is amazing. What great color and texture. Very visually interesting.

    There is just "something" about that acorn on the marble. That one is my favorite, but I can't tell you why. I just like it very much. I'm glad my days of having a teenager in the house are over, however, my first grandchild turns into a teenager next year--the cycle of life.

    Love your orange shot and your selfie is just so soft and lovely . . . I think it would work for cozy too. Never disappointed at what you bring to the hunt.

    nice pics - I would have probably sat on that acorn instead of thinking to get a picture.
