It's time for the end of August linkie for the 2013 Summertime Photography Scavenger Hunt!!! Please join the fun by adding a link to one of your Scavenger Hunt posts at the bottom of today's post. It can be a new post or one from earlier this month. Feel free to share anything related to the Hunt. I'll host one more linky at the end of the Hunt (on Sept. 21). Today, I'm posting my latest awesome find: Dinosaurs!
When I put "a dinosaur" on the list, it was because I pass this yard full of dinosaurs several times a week:
But I have never stopped to look at them up close and personal:
Or to take any photograph:
These large rusty metal dinosaurs are outside a fountain store and group of shops called Spanishtown, and I'm really glad I stopped by for a visit! Have you ever seen anything like this? You can see the rest of my scavenger hunt photos by clicking here.
Please link up your post below and try to stop by at least three other posters to see what they're up to!

You know, at the end I'd love to hear how you came up with all of the prompt ideas - they certainly have not seemed necessarily in your favour, photographically speaking, considering I have an inkling of some of the things you like to shoot.
However, knowing you had these beauties close by was more than enough temptation ... and you chose a great day and time to capture them, the light and the contrast is fabulous - particularly in the first one. The colours in the first one are very reminiscent of the Australian outback.
wow, fantastic photos
amazing group of statues and you chose the perfect sky for colour contrast
Lovely pictures, on a great day, of these creatures. I wonder who made them in the first place? How they got there? They're incredible. I've just tried to link up - not sure if it has worked properly - may need to try again. I've linked directly (I hope) to the first of the 2 pages of pictures on my site. Thanks for the fun - I've nearly got them all..
I'm not surpised this inspired you to put dinosaurs on your list. They ate fantastic...
wow. these are amazing. I love the rusty colour
Wow! No wonder you put dinosaurs on your list, these are great! Never seen anything like them around here lol!
What an amazing group of dinosaurs, much more impressive than mine! I love the contrast of rusty tones and brilliant blue skies :o)
Wow x
I can see why dinosaurs made the list. great shots x
They are fantastic! What a site to drive past!
Fab photos. Such a lovely place to pass every day.
No wonder a dinosaur was on the list! These are fabulous! Like Amy, I'm curious to know how you determine what you put on the list each year.
I love those dinos!
WOWEE that is a lalapaloosa of dinosaurs that's for sure ... great details too
Happy long weekend Rinda

Hi Rinda,
I love your dinosaurs photographs. Wish I was able to go and see them. I am a massive dinosaur fans. Have a lovely weekend too. Andy
Gorgeous statues and I'm glad you stopped to take photos and share them!
Great herd of dinosaurs. Ours are lego but at least we finally got some good ones. I've linked up my latest post but all my scavenger posts can be found here:

Are they ever neat looking! I wonder what the story behind them is.
I tried to link up my update but the url is more than 100 characters long so instead I just used the main blog url and I'll have it so that it's at the top of the blog for awhile but to go directly to it - try http://scrappyknitter.typepad.com/odds_and_ends/2013/09/august-update-on-photographic-scavenger-hunt.html
Great dinosaurs - I still haven't found any yet. I will keep searching! My link will go up soon.
Wow! They are amazing :)
Nearly missed this one, pre-occupied with Tim Holtz Workshop! Just posted my final entry. Now off to hospital now for minor op should be home later today. Love your dinosaurs - amazing and thanks for the challenge can't wait for the next one now. BJ
Those are so cool! How fun!
Really cool photos, Rinda. We have a few of these places in Arizona too - with sculptures like this - but none that I drive by on a regular basis. :o) Like Amy, I'd love to hear how you come up with the list of items you have us search for.
Your photos of these dinosaurs are just awesome! :o)
Wow - great dinosaur photos Rinda! I'm getting my post finished up now & will be linking up shortly. I'm so enjoying seeing everyone's take on the list again this year!
Fab photos of Dinosaurs - I've just managed to post all the photos for all the items on the list in one post - phew - had great fun doing it!
Wow, you've captured a whole herd there.
Brilliant! I still have some pictures to gather and I'll be on the lookout on our "delivery trip" this weekend. Every year feels like the best hunt yet :)
I have been away from blogging for a month and thought I ahd missed the end of the hunt. Yippee I still have 2 weeks to go, better get those pictures downloaded and posted on the blog and go and find that sunset, oh and a cloud!
Wow, they are impressive. I love the contrast of the rust colour against that gorgeous blue sky.
I did wonder where the dinosaur idea came from!....magnificent specimens!!

They are simply amazing! Glad you got to stop and take photos :)
