2014 SCAVENGER HUNT (2)

Another four pictures taken this week for the Scavenger Hunt organised by RINDA.

6- AN URBAN STREET SCENE



Valencia City centre....compared to where I live, this is exceptionally urban!

10- A PHOTO BOMB



I was invited to a performance of THE LION KING (in Spanish!) at one of the Primary schools further up the mountain from here...which, I have to say,  I thoroughly enjoyed......I discovered the guy who was behind the scenes popping up in lots of my pics!


16- A SIGN IN A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH




We have been having new water pipes installed in the village...causing all sorts of disruptions I hasten to add.......and this was the sign put up to inform us all of the impending works

8- A TATTOO ON A PERSON




Kirsty has more than one tattoo, but the one on the back of her neck is my favourite....it's Stuart's date of birth and she kept it a secret for ages before I noticed it!


I am adding a fifth picture here, hoping that RINDA will accept it!

18- A WATERFALL


This waterfall from THE LION KING is likely to be only one I find here! (Behind the heart and made from blue cellophane!)


This leaves my list looking like this:


1. A sign welcoming people to your home town (or a nearby town)
2. A garden gnome
3. Birds on a wire
4. A group of tourists
5. A rack of post cards
6. An urban street scene
7. A rural landscape
8. A tattoo on a person
9. A bakery
10. A photo bomb (someone found lurking in the background of photo; the lurker may have intended to disrupt the picture or may be doing it unintentionally, but the background lurker is a surprise to the photographer)
11. A horn
12. A mascot
13. A sunrise
14. A parade
15. A juggler
16. A sign in a language other than English
17. A lamp post
18. A water fall
19. A public garden
20. A bus (not a car, truck, lorry, camper or RV) with a picture painted on its sides.
21. A photograph of you with something representing the season (recognizing that the season will be Winter for our friends in the southern hemisphere). Note: you may not use a substitute for this item.
If you find something on the list too difficult, you may substitute one of the following items for anything on the list, except for Item #21:
Alternative A: A kite, hot air balloon or blimp
Alternative B: A bird house


If you're taking part, I hope you're having slow but steady success too...if you're not taking part- why not?......you can find details HERE.


Thanks for dropping by!
Take care of you

  10. Wow! You're going great guns Alison. Your waterfall is far less dodgy than my 'fisherman' from last year so I think you should definitely count it. What a lovely meaningful tattoo x
