Scavenger Hunt - Geometry, Brushstrokes, Hanging by a Thread, Collage & On the Dotted Line

1. Geometry
Beautiful geometry in nature, shells.

2. Brushstrokes
Different brushes make different brushstrokes...

3. Hanging by a Thread
Beautiful sparkly water droplets hanging by a thread

4. Collage
A baking collage, my favourite recipe, a Swedish Apple Tea Cake.

5. On the Dotted Line
When you play Trouble you move around the board on the dotted line.

Can't wait to see everyone's interpretations

OK you nailed every single one of these - they are just fab. My favourite has to be that 2nd brushstroke photo - it's pure art!

Every one a winner. Seriously can't pick which one I like the best - all good.
But I have to say 'Swedish apple tea cake' mmmm. Sounds yummy. :)

Ellie said...

Oh Sara, thanks so much for that. Could you hear the desperation in my post. Lol. I am not a computer genius by any means. So any help would be gratefully received. You are too kind.
Oh and recipe would be great as well :))

Beautiful shots! I love how clean your work is.

Ellie said...

Me again, have nominated your blog for an award. Hope that's ok. I posted about it earlier today.

Kmcblackburn said...

Oh wow...every prompt is PERFECT!!! The simplicity of the shots is marvelous, altho I know by no means are they simple to execute. I think that is an artform in and of itself. I hope you don't mind but I am going to start following your blog. Brilliant!

Valeria said...

Amazing set. I love them all.
Great collage? Is that a template? Do you use CS5?

Cropped Stories said...

Love these shots! I love the 2nd brushstroke one - it's gorgeous!

Michelle said...

These are all so wonderful. We had similar ideas for brushstrokes and hanging by a thread. Yours are lovely.

Unknown said...

What lovely photos! They match the prompts beautifully and relate so well with each other as a collection of images. I love the textures, especially on the brushes. I am guessing that is the kind of thing you were saying Photoshop can do. Thank you for such helpful information on PSE. I am liking the ease of use with my LR trial, but there are times I want more creative abilities.

My favorite photos are the one with the drops of water and the collage. The sparkle on the water droplets is stunning! Did you use a macro lens? The collage tells such a fun story! Thank you for sharing and for your information :o)!

Abi said...

You never cease to amaze! My favorite part about your work is the attention to detail: the sparkle of the water droplets, the delicate lighting, the symmetry and dof... I could look at these images every day and never get tired of them!

Margaret said...

My favorite in this set are the pictures of the brushes. Just love the perspective. But the spider's web is pretty sweet, too! :)

Michelle said...

Sara, all of your shots made me say WOW! The light caught in the drops on the spider web are incredible. I also love the texture you laid over your paint brushes.

All around fantastic!
