Making A List & Checking It Twice For A Photo Hunt!





In the northern hemisphere, summer officially begins June 21st so that means in the southern hemisphere winter begins on the same day. 

My blogging friend, Lady Ella at:  Flowers-of-Progress & I were discussing how we miss the list for a photo hunt.  With full understanding that many lives are extremely busy right now, we took the idea & came up with a list of ideas that we want to share for a seasonal photo hunt.  Everyone is welcomed to join in for all the items, a few of the items or just to be a viewer.

We have created a list of 25 items for you to find and photograph between June 1st & September 30th, 2017. 

The list is intended to have some easy finds along with some  challenging ones so it encourages you to go on a few outings & notice things around you. A few of the items are totally up to how you want to interpret the item.

There is no formal link in,  just a list to print off & keep close by on all your outings & excursions over the next 4 months.  If you have a blog, we hope you share your finds on these three dates; June 29th, August 2nd & the roundup on September 30th or share when ever the mood takes you.  No rules, although we do hope you aren't using any photos  taken before June 1st.  Let the fun of a photo challenge begin!


The List:


1.       Something fuzzy
2.       Bubbles
3.       A web
4.       A zig zag
5.       A seasonal relaxing space/item
6.       A pipe
7.       The inside of something
8.       Rust or something derelict
9.       A kite or balloon
10.   Something Yellow
11.   A toy only found out during June to September
12.   A wedding
13.   A dome
14.   Someone fishing
15.   Something crafted from wood
16.   A baby (human or animal)
17.   Circles or crosses in architecture
18.   A fan
19.   Feet of man or beast
20.   Something found under ground
21.  A plaque
22.  A dial
23.  Something powered by wind
24.  Seasonal food or drink
25.  A hat

  9. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! My sister and I were freaking out that there was no list this year. I was looking through multiple photo challenge lists trying to get ideas to compile one. This list that you and Ella compiled is great! Thanks for making our summer tradition continue. We already have the album supplies ready for the photo we get. :)

  10. Oh I am so happy to see this post! I usually join in with Rinda's but she doesn't seem to be doing it this year. I logged onto my blog while I was on holiday in Croatia and saw your post and immediately started looking around for inspiration! Are you going to have an Instagram hashtag for it so people can post there too, or just do it via blogs?
