Here's the compilation followed by individual photos:
Back to school ~ Although many students walk, ride their bikes to school, or are 'chauffeured', there is a convoy of school buses that reach in and out of the rural areas. Here's one driving students home, passing by the beach en route.
What's in my bag? What isn't in my bag? ;) The most important thing about my everyday bag/purse is that it be practical and organized so I can find things. There are 3 zippered compartments. I spend a lot of time outdoors and like to have my hands free to take photos, therefore my bag has the option of being worn as a backpack.
Inside I have my cell phone, driving/sun glasses, ebook reader, wallet/purse, and a few odds and ends like Afterbite (in case of insect bites), small measuring tape, keys, comb, etc. Not too exciting, but it works for me :)
Relaxation:My first thought was the deck where I spent many relaxing afternoons reading.
However, on one of my relaxing walks, I saw a beautiful blue dragonfly seemingly sunbathing for a fairly lengthy time, so he was chosen for the spot!
Harvest: There is a plethora of squash and gourds displayed in the farmers' markets:
A pile of things: I could have taken all the things from my bag and piled them up...or used this one with the sun spilling through the trees on someone's workpile:
Instead, I chose this colourful squash pile:
Public telephone: These seem to be a dying breed since most people carry cell phones, however I did find one on a wall in the village:
Apples: I noticed these apples overhanging the trail in a Wildlife Conservation area quite close to the shore. Hopefully the wildlife will enjoy them :)
A road sign: This sign caught my attention and I don't even want to know what it means!
That's it for this month ~ Thanks to Kathy at Postcards from the P.P. for hosting this monthly challenge. click here to see other link-ups of September photos

Thanks so much for commenting on my Scavenger Hunt photos...because it brought me over here to view your wonderful entries! I've enjoyed snooping around your blog, and think you and have have a similar eye; I could imagine if we had walked together when some of your blog photos were taken, our blogs would look really similar!! I'm going to "follow" so I'll be back soon!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! Your deck looks just right for relaxing on and I love your gourd and squash photos and the phone box - so different to ours over here. The dragonfly is beautiful:)
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say Thank you for commenting on my photos for the Scavenger Hunt. I enjoyed looking at yours too, it's interesting to see how other people interpret the list of items to photograph.
