Photo Hunt Challenges

Favorite “macro/close-up” photohunt entries

I didn’t actually judge this category, I didn’t feel comfortable because I don’t know anything about photography or how to use a camera (other than point and shoot).  My daughter Heidi has taken some photography classes so I let her pick her favorites in this category.  Just let me say I was totally impressed with the flower shots, insect shots, facial shots and interesting objects.  It was a very fun category to browse through.  Congratulations to all the participants for their amazing work.  And remember you can vote for three participants.  Polls close at the end of September.

Favorite “Macro Shot” Photo Hunt Entries

We’ve made it to the final item in PH#5, Macro Shot.  Please look through the photos and vote for your favorite. The poll will stay open for exactly one month and anyone is allowed to vote but I  encourage you to vote for your favorite photo rather than for a particular person. Comments are also welcome

Please note:  I am no longer linking the photographer’s gallery to their photo, but you can see all the participants galleries linked here.  If you would like to know who the photographer of each photo is, just scroll your mouse over the photo and the person’s name will be shown as the title of the photo.

Favorite “Something that Floats” Photo Hunt Entries

Thanks for sticking with me throughout the month as I post all my favorites from Photo Hunt #2.  As you can imagine, it takes some time to post all the photos and make sure they get linked back to the proper photographer (and I am a busy lady!).  Just three items left on the list, including “Something that Floats”, so let’s do this!

Favorite “Something Vintage” Photo Hunt Entries

The term vintage is one in itself that allows room for interpretation.  For the sake of this entry, I required it to be something  pre-1980.  Here were my favorites, a link to the participant’s gallery is attached to each photo #.

Favorite “Air/Wind” Photo Hunt Entries

Finally I am able to post again…. Mr. Linky switched servers and my convenient list of links from the participant entries disappeared for almost 3 days! I couldn’t post here w/o it.  They were just finally able to get my stuff switched over and I updated my code so we are good to go again

This was another interesting category to interpret & photograph.  Here are my favorites
