Superhero Challenge: Treasure hunt




The picture above is really the only photo I have taken of something in my hands. On my visit to the Aegean Sea a while back, I was astonished by the intricate mixture of sand. Not perfect white grains like Pensacola Beach, nor rocky barky sand like Crane's Beach, just beautiful glittery grains of every shape and color. I wanted to remember it forever.

Bella and I took to heart the Shutter Sisters' Superhero Challenge to gather treasure and headed right out on a photo walk, though most of our treasure was found indoors.

It turns out my definition of treasure has changed over the years.


Little toes that still fit in my hand.


A leaf from our giant maple, altering everything's perspective.


Bella's favorite toy, now that her hand is just large enough to hold it.


And Bella's favorite thing to do with her treasure.

I love the picture of her little feet in your hand. I think that is the best interpretation of the Shutter Sisters challenge I have seen so far.

I love you shots. I did something similar with the 'eyes of a child' theme but have yet to get out to do the 'treasure challenge'. Bella is a beautiful baby and your photos are amazing.

Love the shot of her hand with the leaf! Beautiful.

Welcome!

Welcome! Thanks for stopping in. As you can see, I have a passion for photography (and cooking and knitting). My daughters, Bella and Lillia, are my greatest inspiration, so you might find you see a lot of them here, as well as the beautiful Pacific Northwest. Be sure to take a peek around and leave some love in the comments!
