Life in the Middle; i.e. it’s Fall {Scavenger Hunt Sunday}

Sep 23, 2012 | Photography, Scavenger Hunt Sunday, Weekly Winners

For the first time in months I made a concerted effort to get out with my camera and seek out the word prompts for this weeks scavenger hunt. I enjoyed the challenge and finding some camera time in the midst of a very busy week. (I did have to use one picture from my archives, but it’s a fav so I’m not too upset)

All taken w/ Canon Rebel XS.

1. Cracked
The bitterest tears shed over graves are for words left unsaid and deeds left undone. ~Harriet Beecher Stowe

A half-truth, like half a brick, is always more forcible as an argument than a whole one. It carries better. ~Stephen Leacock

2. Fallen
The friendship between me and you I will not compare to a chain; for that the rains might rust, or the falling tree might break. We are the same as if one man’s body were to be divided into two parts, we are all one flesh and blood. ~William Penn

A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble. ~Charles H. Spurgeon

5. Fence
…his affections, like ivy, were the growth of time, they implied no aptness in the object. ~Robert Louis Stevenson

There can be no friendship where there is no freedom. Friendship loves a free air, and will not be fenced up in straight and narrow enclosures. ~William Penn

Since I’m addicted to quotes w/ my images I’ve started to link to the Sunday Citar over at Fresh Mommy Blog w/ my photo posts every Sunday. It’s a great way to combine two of my loves 🙂

You can find more pictures over at my flickr account.

    These are all great. I’m glad you find some time to get out with the camera and sometimes going through the archives is just as fun as taking a new photo. Your last shot is my favorite. I’m so ready for some snow. Yes, I’m probably the only one ready for that haha.
