SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY.....10-9-2011

1.  Landscape
The colors of autumn...a barn a couple miles from home.

2.  Complementary/Triadic Color
 This is a SOOC photo. The autumn colors of the hydrangea leaf show off the complementary colors of red and green or maybe it's closer to triadic colors of purple, green and orange...ah!!! the beauty of nature.

3.  Black and White

This photo tells a story... We have some very close and special friends who have a remarkable family. Last year, their daughter, her husband and their three beautiful children made a life-changing decision to share their blessings and their life with two babies from the Congo. They went through an unbelievable adventure, but finally were able to adopt the two children and bring them into their home. I have the greatest respect and admiration for the whole family. What a beautiful example they are for all..... black and white together - a true picture of love. Another shot below...




4.  Food
I decided to keep it simple....I think sometimes that makes for a better photo.


5.  Blank Space
"Blank Spaces" aren't always blank...  As I was searching all week for the best way to capture "blank space" I started noticing the interesting shadows, patterns and designs that were created as light bounced off blank walls and corners. I ended up combining two photos to create an interesting composition of "blank spaces", but with the added light and shadow.....visually it ends up not so blank.
