Joining in today with Hawthorn's monthly scavenger hunt. I love this challenge of putting pictures to her words. Go and check out the link and play along if you fancy joining in and have a look at all the other wonderful photos from around the world.
Blue
 |
| That was a great day for hanging around drying your wings! |
Eye
 |
| The Janus Figure on the Boa Island in Co. Fermanagh The Celts believed the soul resided in the head so the head and eyes are proportionately larger than the body. I have a post coming up about this later on. |
Button
 |
| Sinead playing the button key accordion at a traditional session earlier this month |
Favourite
 |
| We passed this house in Australia earlier this year I wanted to see inside but didn't think it'd be polite to go and ask |
Feet
 |
| Feet firmly planted waiting... |
Glass
 |
| The Henrietten Kirche in Annahuette, Germany. Many churches in Germany multitask as arts centres. We played here earlier this yearend every couple of years and I love the stained glass. |
Green
 |
| The fields up the Mournes always look like a patchwork to me |
Floor
 |
| OK, this is a tenuous link to floor, but it's about walking so .... I wrote about Poetic Action in a post earlier this week but hadn't managed to get a picture of this one in time. |
Knitted/Crocheted
 |
| My first attempt at wet felting and I'm absolutely beside myself with the excitement of achievement :) I've turned it into a holder that I can hang on my microphone stand on stage for my constantly disappearing plectrums and capos |
My own choice
 |
| My passion flowers have bloomed constantly for the past 6 weeks and were just beautiful - on a north facing wall that gets very little sun, no attention and hardly any water. |
With thanks to Hawthorn for organising the monthly Scavenger Hunt.
Such unusual photos and from all over the place! My favourite is the wet felting bag; I've done a little bit of felting and have plans to do more but being retired I do not have the time!
ReplyDeleteOh how I envy you lol -
DeleteOoh what a wonderful selection of stories and pictures, I love seeing the different interpretations inspired by the list. my favourite is the image of the Janus Figure on the Boa Island in Co. Fermanagh, thank you for joining in x
ReplyDeletethank you for the challenge - it's great fun thinking laterally :)
DeleteI looove your posts, the Scavenger hunt! I loved the German church with stained glass, loved the "eyes" and am looking forward to the post about the soul and Celts and I loved the Australian house - yes, it would be weird to ask to see it inside... but the curiosity remains! We used to have an accordion in the family, I loved it! What I am amaaaazed is the wet felting - I loved what you made, would love to know how to do it too! Hope you have a nice day, dear Fil!

DeleteAs one who once taught wet-felting, I have to say that your little bag is adorable ! And it has a great purpose ! I haven't been around much, but am trying hard to visit all of my international (internet) friends. Just me, dropping in to say 'Hello' to you ;)
