Scavenger Hunt Sunday #10

For Ashley Sisks' Scavenger Hunt Sunday, this weeks prompts included,

Water, Light, Chocolate, Animal(Rabbit) and Crowded.

As you will find I got carried away with a theme.....

Like WATER for Chocolate

The titleof one of my favourite foodie books, by Laura Esquivel.

In Mexico, hot chocolate is made with water instead of milk. To prepare the drink, the water is brought to boil and then the cocoa added. When a person becomes agitated or empassioned, it is said that they are 'like water for chocolate'. I found this shot difficult to take without getting steam into my camera lense, but I quite like the pattern/ effect it produced.

LIGHT and Dark

Well you have to have the dark to appreciate the light ? Right?

CHOCOLATE

doesn't last long in my joint

ANIMAL

CROWDED

with hundreds' and thousands'

Nb; All chocolate was happily consumed from this photo session

Thanks for popping on by, love to hear your comments on my images
and I'm looking forward to seeing others finds in the Scavenger Hunt.

My idea of bliss is a massage, I just might book one for myself this week!

Scavenger Hunt Sunday 5

Hello There Lovely People !
,
     I've had quite a pleasant week scavenging and to top it off I've had a really lovely day visiting Government House in Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. It opens to the public just one day a year.
     I have also been doing some reading during the week trying to get my head around Bokeh, but it seems I have Bokeh in my brain ( a bit fuzzy ). I was experimenting with shots in the beautiful gardens surrounding Government House, but I didn't have much luck ( I seemed to bleach the main subject) . Oh well more practice for me.
    Thankyou for all the lovely feedback on last weeks' photos, I would love to reply to some of you, I am still working out the best way to do so, as I realised if I comment on your comment, you don't really recieve it. ( is that correct? I'm only 3 weeks new to this blog business and won't mind at all if someone puts me straight)
    Hope you all had a lovely week yourselves and thankyou for popping on by.

This weeks Scavenger Hunt items were,
Strike a Pose, Footwear, Hobby, Shiny, and Colour Me Green
