About a month ago, my father-in-law gifted me with his dSLR since he was getting a newer, fancier one as his retirement gift to himself. Since that day, my new (to me) camera has been in my hands every.single.day. I am hooked and while I absolutely adore being the Mommarazzi, I also wanted to use it for other things so that I would have an opportunity to really learn how to use Snappy (yeah, I named my camera) so I went to my good friend Google and started searching for photo scavenger hunts. I didn't find as many as I expected but I did come across one over on
Postcards from the P.P. that I felt would be a good fit, everyone there seems really nice, not snooty-patootie and judgmental like a few other scavenger hunt groups I found.
So enough with the rambling and on with the pics!
1. A Church
 |
| The French Huguenot Church reflected in the doors of The Dock Street Theatre |
2. A Cross
 |
| 100+ year old grave markers at St. Phillip's Episcopal Cemetery |
3. Sculpture - I'm not happy with this picture at all. Usually there is great light reflecting off this sculpture but he's currently sitting under scaffolding.
 |
| A Bronze Sculpture outside the Martin Gallery on Broad St. |
4. Interesting Shop Name - cheated a bit here Catfish Row isn't actually the name of a shop but the setting of Gershwin's
Porgy & Bess
 |
| Catfish Row |
5. Something Yellow
 |
| I didn't notice the ladybug in the background until after I was back in the office. |
6. Your Camera
 |
| Snappy (and me trying to hold her still without being in the pic) |
7. April Showers
 |
| It ended up not raining this day but it certainly looked like it was going to! |
8. Something to mark St. George's Day - I had to consult wikipedia on St. George's Day, had never heard of it. So after looking online and wondering where the heck I was ever going to find something and seriously considering driving 45 minutes up the interstate and taking a picture of the St. George SC exit, I look up to see a St. George Flag blowing in the breeze!

9. Eggs
 |
| These are plastic eggs - bet you'd have never figured that out on your own : ) |
10. A Set of Keys
 |
With a 7 month old working on her 2nd tooth these are always handy!
|
Oops! I realized when looking at everyone else's shots for the month that I left two off!
11. Breakfast - I'm one of those people who usually skips breakfast or just has something incredibly bad for me like Red Bull and a bag of chips (yes, I just admitted to the internet that I eat potato chips for breakfast!)
12. Something to do with Shakespeare - Ugh this was hard! Which is probably why I conveniently forgot it!
 |
| This is a terrible pic I just snapped. I've had this book of sonnets since 7th grade. They were a gift from a boy who liked me; he thought that since I was in a theatre group that I must be into Shakespeare...he was mistaken! |
I'm really looking forward to next month's list! Thanks Kathy for hosting!
