SHS Photo Challenge 14

Goody-goody gumdrops, as my Mama used to say.  That meant she was really excited about something.  I am excited to check out all the creative interpretations to match this weeks prompts . . . Stacked Up, Winter Wonderland, Sweet, Hole and Frozen.   Linking with Ashley Sisk at Ramblings & Photos; hop on over if you'd like to play along.



1.  Stacked Up
Inside my daughter's cupboard.

2.  Winter Wonderland
Where I live we rarely get snow, but woke up this morning to about 4 inches of the white stuff.  The little clumps of snow on this lantern plant look so pretty and the blanket of snow makes a perfect backdrop.  I am so enjoying Windows 7 on my new computer and the photo-editing tools they have included.  Had lots of fun playing with this one.

3.  Sweet
Found in my girl's treat drawer . . . snapped it and put it right back.   Really, I did!

4.  Hole
The hole in the ceiling that leads to the skylight.

5.  Frozen
So nice of the weather to co-operate and let me get a frozen shot.


Prompts for the next hunt are:
1.  Sunset
2.  Black & White
3.  A Day in My Life
4.  Four 
5. Colourful

    Ah, Andrea Dawn. These are all so lovely because they tell me more about you and where you live. I am surprised you hardly ever get snow. I thought this would be a snap (no pun intended) for you. Don't you just love the LED's? So much beauty at so little cost!

    I see you just went to my pics 5 minutes ago. I want to see what you thought. I wish I knew how to put a running list of where I go on my blog, not as technically saavy as you.

    Love you,
    Dawn

      I went to see them Dawn, but they weren't up yet . . . you must have been in the middle of posting them. I will certainly leave a comment.
      Hugs, Andrea Dawn

    Thank you for the comment regarding my macro shots on SHS. The frozen shot with the golf ball in the bird bath was a fluke. That is what happens when you have your white balance set for tungsten from a previous night of shooting and forget to reset it the next day. Good selection here for you too but that snow on the lantern plant is a winner. Having the snow as a backdrop as you said, makes it.

    Great shots, Andrea. Love the "frozen" string of lights. We have NO snow here and I would like just one nice one. It's easy to enjoy snow here since it never lasts too long, does it?
