Photo scavenger hunt

I got caught up with Kathy's photo scavenger hunt idea early in 2011 and got hooked. I love the fact that it has made me think a bit about what is around me and I love to look at the way others interpret the themes. I've had a few months when I haven't managed all (or indeed any some months!) but am tackling it again this year with renewed determination and enthusiasm! Follow the flickr link in my sidebar to have a look at photos in the group.
