This looks like so much fun!! I am new here but love taking pictures.. I need more inspiration to take pics of other things as 99% of pictures are of dd who runs away from the camera now..

Bubbles!

Dragonfly

So glad to see this back!

Our Scouts took part in a Dragon Boating regatta on Sunday - it was absolutely freezing and rained non-stop for over six hours! Oh well, they got to the semi-finals and I got a couple of photos that fit the Scavenger Hunt!

Interesting! Maybe you could have also used this in the Frank (fill in the blank) category. And is that a costumed interperter? Three in one - nice work!

Another category I thought of after posting the picture was historical.

Thank you so much for organising this! I had so much fun last year and my photography improved immensely. I am really looking forward to participating again this year.

I was at Fort Constitution yesterday which is on USCG Base when an alarm went off, I heard the helicopter take off but couldn't get a shot until it was over the water, don't know what happen, check the news but found nothing.

PrincessInOz, can I come hang out with you? You always have the most delectable food pictures! What kind of white fish was that?

Don, amazing photos, as always!

playeng2ff, which ship were you on? Enjoying your DCL Alaska photos!

Welcome, skubacat! So nice to "see" so many old friends!

I think this is going to be a fun one but I have GOT to get my act together! Once again, I was out yesterday and couldn't help seeing some categories but this time I didn't even have my cell phone on me so I used DD's for a couple (and even then I missed one, realizing when I got home I shot the wrong thing! ). I did manage to get one on my own phone from the dentist's chair! (How bad is that! Toothless grin, thankfully not my own! ) Now to get them off the phones...

Glad to see the scavenger hunt back for another summer. I was thinking I would only use new photos but then I saw "clown" on the list and knew I had a good one for that category taken on Memorial Day at a local rodeo. So here is my entry for ...

Clown

We took a recent ferry trip to Long Island NY. What a fun trip and nice place to visit!

Maritime

Something Orange

Bewildered Tourist (Um, the water's on your left, lol)

USA

Armed Forces

Water Fowl

Gridlock

Lighthouse (3) I will try to research names and repost them here.

This one was so under fog that this was the best pic I got - as we got closer the fog got so thick the lighthouse became undetectable. Kind of scary!

And my own stretch Rest Area Map - Orient Point (Too close to get a good focus w/ 50-200 on but noticed my navigation as we were driving off ferry and thought it was too cool not to post!)

I am having a great time looking at everyone's pictures! I love all the water fowl and their babies, I need to go out and find some of my own!

dcg013, your insect pictures are amazing!

plyeng2ff, I love seeing your Alaska pictures, I really want to get back there.

pea-n-me I saw you went to Harbes vineyard, did you go to any others? What else did you do? If you go again, Briermere Farms makes the best berry pies and The Elbow Room in Jamesport has the best marinated steak. I love the east forks!
