1) Kiss
During our recent trip to Seattle we went to the Ballard Locks. A wedding had just finished and the photographer was taking followup pics. Bombing wedding photos, especially of strangers, is a hobby of mine. I wish this attractive couple well.
2) Askew
My wife and I love the glass art of Dale Chihuliy. We visited the Missouri Botanical Gardens in Saint Louis a few years ago during Fall Break. I loved this installation.
3) Fragrant
While in Seattle we visited the Pike Place Market several times. All you hear about are the fish, but we loved the fresh flower arrangements.
4) Simple
Nothing much simpler than a single rower on a lake. (Lake Union in Seattle)
5) Plant
We also visited Mount Rainier National Park. Acres and acres (thousands of acres really) of wildflowers. I forget what these are, but they are beautiful.
Well, that is it for this week. I hope Ashley doesn’t kick me out for bending the rules a little bit.
Good work. imagine most folks cheat a little. You are just honest enough to admit it.
Of course I love all your captures because they’re all my favorite places here in Seattle!! How fun!! You don’t cheat enough for anyone to worry about!! Hope your weekend is going well!
Your photos are wonderful – I like seeing how people interpret the prompts.
I agree with Sylvia, some of my favorite places in Washington. The Ballard Locks can be quite entertaining. The Pilchuck School of Glass is a bit north of Seattle. Sometimes Dale Chihuliy teaches there. The flowers are lupines. I like your interpretations, even if the photos didn’t come from last week.
I don’t find that a cheat at all, just a super interpretation of the subject. I’m in total agreement, those flowers are self-seeded lupins.
Sometimes you have to bend the rules. I think you did a wonderful job!
Wild flowers are always the best.
Well done. 🙂 You got them all and who cares if they are from this week or not. 😉
great set of photos, we have a chihuly gallery here in st pete i have not yet visited but his work is beautiful none the less!
I like this meme and what you’ve done here. Fragrant is especially beautiful.
I’ve never seen anyone get kicked out. When I had my knee replacement surgery I used all archived photos for many weeks . . . it’s really just a fun way to improve your photography and meet some great artists. Having said that, “Welcome”. Every time my daughter goes to Seattle she brings back flowers from Pike Place Market. My favourite shot is the simple rower.
Great shots! Welcome to the hunt, I have only been doing it for a few weeks now but its fun!
you’re right – everyone talks about the fish at Pikes Place Market, but those flowers are incredibly appealing to me. I’d like to be that rower… what a treat to have a large body of water to spend your Sunday morning rowing.
These are great – I love the glass art installation!
Love the rowing shot!
What a sweet kiss!
