CGDN Scavenger Hunt- January 2012

Yay! Month 2 of Sophie's resurrected Scavenger Hunt! I managed to get quite a few of them but some are veeeeeery tenuous to say the least!! 

•Blue

Blue
CBC should take credit for this arty-shot, originally aimed at capturing the blue of the fountain, the reflection of the blue sky on the windows and the blue advertisements on the buses.  He took over my camera and proceeded to take shot after shot- presumably punishment for having to take a series of outfit shots by the fountains!

•Discovery
Discovery
Found whilst walking along Haltwhistle burn!  What is it?  Is it a pixie hole? Is it the exit to the Slippery-slip? The hide-out for villain's swag alla Famous 5?? WHO knows??
•Film
Film
Ha ha, another tenuous one! I just wanted to take a picture of this lampshade so I am submitting it as 'Finding Nemo' because there were lots of scenes like this in that!
•Resolution
Lindy outfit
Possibly the worst shot of the lot!  I didn't make official resolutions, but I did resolve that we really would go to lindy-hop classes and dances regularly so that we can actually do it properly and be confident to improvise wedding dances! However, all my intentions of taking arty shots at the Saturday night swing club went out the window- I just focused on the dance!  So here's what I wore to address this resolution!


•No.1
No. 1
Ha ha, tenuous!  Can you guess why this one is No.1????? (I'm imagining Alex and Louise will know for sure!)
•Celebration,
Celebration
Nelson's column- to celebrate victory in the Napoleonic wars!
•Fizzy
Fizzy
I'm pretty sure Cava is fizzy, isn't it???? Someone reassure me!
•Retro
Retro
The disco ball is the epitomy of retro to me as I think of cheesy 80's school discos whenever I see one!
I had fun messing around taking these, so I did a collage in the end! I may do an outtakes post on this one- you will see the extent of my sadness!
•Woollen
Woolen
The feared Christmas jumper that turned out to be wonderful!  Seee, my family DO have taste!
•Hand
Hand
CBC may throttle me!  I received these gloves for Christmas (secret Santa) and I delight in sticking my finger into the nose so they look 3D and making the 2 gloves have a conversation!  He's getting crosser and crosser everytime I do it!
•Distance
distance
There is no way I can climb this distance! I officially SUCK (to coin the vulgar phrase!) at climbing!
•Frozen
Frozen
One token snow view shot!
•Bonus photograph you are pleased with
Bonus
A beautiful sunset! Most of my favourite shots are sunsets or clouds- so there'll be little variation here!
Go and visit Sophie and see everyone else's shots! And join in!
