we’re all going on a treasure hunt

This week’s challenge from the Lens Artists is a different one: Tina would like us to search for specific items from the archives

Challenge Items: Sunrise and/or sunset, Something cold and/or hot, a bird, a dog, a funny sign, a bicycle, a seascape and/or mountain landscape, a rainbow, a church, a musical instrument, a boat, a plane, a waterfall

Extra Credit Items:  An expressive portrait of one or more people, a very unusual place, knitting or sewing, a fish, an animal you don’t normally see, a bucket, a hammer, a street performer, a double rainbow, multiple challenge items in a single image.

I have thousands of images in my archives, so I went searching, looking for the more unusual items that could meet the brief. If you click on an image you can go through the gallery and read further information about each image.

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #85 | Treasure Hunt

I have lived in the UK for most of my life, but when young I definitely had wanderlust and even ended up living in South Africa for several years which was a wonderful experience. I now look forward to a long and leisurely retirement doing what I like most - gardening, photography, walking and travelling.

  1. Hah, the rainbow lorrie is a brilliant choice! One has started coming to my balcony when I’m outside. I’m sure it expects to be fed, which is not going to happen, but s/he sits on a branch and natters away at me, cocking its head to see better. I’d love to know what it’s thinking!

    1. Haha I thought the lorrie was quite clever, glad you picked up on it, they are sweet little birds. And much more colourful than our sparrows.
