This looks like such fun!! And it's not even summer here...oh well, I can dream!!! Thanks Linda - that list is mammoth!
OK here is my start:

Monument:

Clouds:

Bird feeding (up close):

Yes, it is the "right" way up! The branches of the grevillea are quiet soft and his weight bends the branch dramatically!! This is from my front garden and I was able to get within about 4 feet of him!!

Kookaburra:

This guy was sitting on my back fence this morning - looking for something yummy to eat!!

(Sorry about the different sizes! Seems I can't get photobucket quite right yet!! )

Hey Heather!

I actually had you in mind when I put a few of the items in, especially kookaburra. People that helped me do the list (during baseball games, lol) were like, "kookaburra"?

What kind of bird is the green one?

Scratches to Charlotte.

I would like to join in on this! I just got back from a Disney trip so I am a little behind. But since I am a teacher on summer break this will get me to learn to use my camera. I just got my dslr in May so it is all new and I am not that good at it yet, but this will help.

Do I just post as many pictures at a time as I can? From what I read it seems like as you take the picture just post it, right?

Oh and another question... since it is "open for interpretation" if we post something that doesn't count will you tell us?

Coming a little late to this but looks like a great project for the summer! Think Google will be my friend, though - I have never heard of some of the objects! Totally intrigued as to Salt Water Taffy!

Anyway, my first few photos.

HI Linda - thanks - I feel honoured that you thought of me for this!! It makes some of them easier for me..!! Although I will say I'm not sure what some of the items are either - I wait for someone else to post a picture, then I have my "a-ha" moment!!!
The green bird is a rainbow lorikeet - we have lots of them here. They are nectar eaters, and the native grevilleas and bottle brushes are their favourite food! Hence I have lots of those plants in my garden! They are so beautiful! (Charlotte chases birds from the garden, but I have told her that these birds are OK and can stay!!! )

I am so loving everyone's photos - it's good to have something to focus on now my Disney holiday is over...
Keep the photos coming!! This is fun!!

Yes

Oh and another question... since it is "open for interpretation" if we post something that doesn't count will you tell us?

In the spirit of keeping it fun, I'd hope people just do their best to work within the guidelines:

3. Categories are open to your interpretation, but please don't stray "too far" from the intended meaning

Happy Shooting with your new DSLR!

 

[tinkabella627]

Yes


In the spirit of keeping it fun, I'd hope people just do their best to work within the guidelines:

Happy Shooting with your new DSLR!

Ok... I am sharing the list with my husband now so he can tell me if there is something that I have taken the past week that qualifies haha

I will be posting this weekend I hope!
