Photo Challenge ~Update Four

I realised yesterday that if I was to update my photo challenge with it's finale on Saturday there would be 11 photos to finish it off! I sort of hadn't realised before that that the weeks would pan out like this to leave me with so many extra days at the end XD So, today I thought I would update with a few of the final challenge photos, there are some pretty interesting ones today too x3

Something Green
Something Green
While out visiting Worcester I saw quite a few interesting things, including this old railway bridge, painted a rather interesting shade of mint XD

A Stretch of Fields
A Stretch of Fields
This I thought would be an easy one for the challenge as I'm usually out and about in the countryside on my days off, but I actually had to concentrate on looking out for a good stretch of fields to get this photo. I think it was worth the wait though.

An Interesting Shop Window
An Interesting Shop Window
I changed this one up a bit by taking it from the inside of the window, but I really like this place, a small restaurant that has opened up in the new complex they are building up town. We were going to try out the food here but they were too busy, so I just got this pic of their nice shop side!

A Family Crest
A Family Crest
Also taken around Worcester, I believe this building is now the local council building? Not sure. But it was big and fancy and has a crest on it! To be honest, I'm not 100% if this is a family crest or a town crest, but we'll run with it....

Free Shot
Free Shot
This one was too cute not to include as a Free Shot! It was some street art from the high street, which some woman wouldn't stop standing over as I tried to take this pic, which is why some of the words are cropped out...but I love how vibrant it is! I didn't know chalk could be so bright x3
We'll leave it there for now and I'll show you the last of the photo challenge pics on Saturday ^^ I've still not got any plans for August as a challenge, so, anything you would like to see?

July Photo-a-Day ~Week Three

Ohhh, so over the weekend I was crazy busy and like a dork I had nothing pre-written so here we are with an amalgamated Monday weekend post!
I thought as I didn't take many photos at all last week that I would put together Saturday's July photo challenge and Sunday catch-up :x So lets start:

A Forest Path
A Forest Path
This one was taken out near the wrekin and although I'm sure this challenge is sort of planned to make me get out more and take more photos I was so busy this day I literally just drove to this spot to take this photo. Hmmm.

An Oak Tree
An Oak Tree
I would've liked to find an oak tree with some sort of interesting history or something, but while I was driving down a country road the view took my interest, and then I saw this tree. It's nothing special, in fact there were a lot of oak trees down this lane, but that's kinda what struck me- it's very british, I think? x3

Front Door
Front Door
A simple one here, I was going to see if I could spot someone else's pretty front door, but I ended up going with our own XD

View From the Top of a Hill
View From the Top of a Hill
Another view from a drive I took earlier in the week. The weather was really nice this day in between two rainy days, and really clear too as I looked from the top of a small hill out near Little Wenlock.

Clouds
Clouds
Self explanatory this one? Although pretty normal, I thought the clouds this day were quite picturesque.

Free Shot
Free Shot
I hadn't realised it was quite this time f year, but the wheat is turning golden already. The year is going by so fast ;d
Well, only one more week left of this challenge! I'm not sure what I'm going to do for August quite yet, if anything. Any ideas you'd like to see?

July Photo-a-Day ~Week Two

We're onto week two, and I've got to admit I'm already struggling to take a photo everyday, let alone with a theme! Let's see what i managed to get, shall we?

A Favourite Sweet
A Favourite Sweet
Okay, I've got to admit, I'm not sure if this is cheating or not XD A sweet isn't really a fruit and if someone offered me friut as a sweet I'd probably laugh in their face...but cherries are something else. Like, a level to themselves of awesome Xp And as cherry season appears to be in full swing I am pleased to have far more than I can eat around at the moment XD Even better that they're free!

In the Sun
In the Sun
This isn't my favourite interpretation of a challenge item, although it does fit it. I just hadn't planned of having to use it on a shot like this, but that's not to say I don't like it, and ultimately that's how this shot came to be here xp

A Playground
A Playground
Also maybe a little cheaty? Can a merry-go-round count as a playground? I'm not sure but I think it's super cute so here it is ;p

In the Garden
In the Garden
In my head I'd intended this shot to be more like a blanket laid out on the grass with books and the like scattered around, my usual garden relaxation routine, but instead I've gone for my favourite lily this year! It's a beast of a plant with 40 flowerheads! I'd tried to google to see how many flowerheads was the most likely to grow on this kind of lily just for a comparison but I couldn't find much, shame. I'm starting to feel a guinness worl record going on ;p

Free Shot
Free Shot
I dragged Face to the safari park on Tuesday finally, I've been trying to go for at least the last 4 years XD I got some really good photos too (and a lot of mediocre ones...) but this one of the white tiger I thought came out really well, it kind of looks like he's got something on his mind to me.

A Pet Outside
A Pet Outside
I think I can be forgiven for actually having two pets outside in this shot? ;p Thursday was a lovely sunny day and i took advantage by cleaning the boys out as they'd started to really trash their tank ;p They weren't sure what to think- their first tank clean and their first time being outside! I even put them on the grass for a while, they weren't sure what was happening at all :x

Something Exciting
Something Exciting
This is not only my favourite shot this week, but my favourite shot in a long time! It's exciting because African Wild Dogs are easily my favourite animal at the safari park and as we drove through their enclosure the whole pack walked right out in front of our car holding up all the traffic behind us, but giving us a great view and plenty of photo opportunities! I was so stoked and look how cute they are x333
Well, that's it's for this week, sorry about the late posting, it's looking like Sunday Catch up could be a Monday catch up too as I'm at work for at least 12 hours tomorrow. We'll get there :3
Are you trying this challenge? Let me know x3
