Summertime Photography Scavenger Hunt - The Finale

It's officially autumn now, and Rinda's Summertime Photography Scavenger Hunt has come to an end. It's time for one last check-in and to share this year's pictures.

As always there was a good mixture of items that were easy to find, that had to be tracked down, or that relied on a modicum of luck.

My hunt has taken me far and wide, with photos from five different countries this year, and I managed to find all 21 items, plus one of the substitutes (although I didn't need it in the end). I've shared some of these pictures previously, and some are new; this is my final selection for 2015.

  1. Super - I'm sure I have commented on many of these already but I'll say again, the bridge is lovely. Your uniform one is great too! Laughed at how we had the same traffic light. I thought I was being so clever but it's come up a couple of times - imagine if we had all turned up there on the same day and discovered we'd all been "sent" by Rinda!!!

  2. I remember seeing all but the August photos, and I'm SO glad you did a recap. Wish I had thought to do the same. You got some fantastic photos. I was truly impressed, especially with the different places you went and the photos that looked like you were there specifically to get the shots.

    I loved the overloaded bike and matching outfits, but the flags were clever. And I'm in awe of that panoramic view, too. Congrats on getting all these. Rinda sure had us working for the photos this summer, didn't she?

  6. I love your overloaded bike and uniforms, and I think it's funny that you went out of the country to photograph the bathroom.
