Winter Photography Scavenger Hunt: A Slow February

Driving around the other day, I saw this new building under construction and thought about the Winter Photography Scavenger Hunt. I've been playing along, but realized that I have a few left to do and better get to them! 
I had already taken but never blogged #10 (a letter shape in nature or in an object). I found a very nice "F" in the trees on my walk to work:
 
 I also found a really cool "5", which you can see in the bottom third of the photo below, tucked into the V of the tree. Dropbox (where I'm pulling this photo from) seems to only save the original photo and not the cropped version where you can find it more easily.
 
Consider it your morning puzzle to see if you can locate the "5". Ha!
Here's the complete list and where I am (I still need the ones in bold):
 1. Reflection in water - done
2. Someone wearing a funny hat - done
3. Ornate door knocker
4. Breakfast - done
5. Something that is over 100 years old - done
6. Winter weather
7. Someone dressed for the season
8. A fish - done
9. Festive lights- done 
10. A letter shape in nature or in an object - done
11. Polka dots - done
12. Silhouette - done
13. Stained glass window - done
14. Partly built new building - done
15. Bunting
16. A collection (of anything) - done
17. Texture - done
18. Shadow - done 
19. Street musicians
20. Nativity scene - compulsory and can't be substituted - done
Alternative A - new life - done
Alternative B -  a decorated tree - done
I have five left. Even if I can claim credit for both alternates, I still need at least three more. Are you playing along? How far along are you? Will try to link up with the month-end linkie, which should be here.

    I love the photos Rinda! I see both very clearly. Good job on finding most of the items, but around here you may never find the one dressed for the season. We are having a strange winter! Say hi to everyone for us!! Miss you guys!

    I had every intention to participate in this, but never got going. I imagine I have quite a few in my last few months of photos, but it's unlikely I'm going to go through them now. Love the trees!

    great f

    I save files in Dropbox in the same way that I would to a folder on my hard drive and have never had a problem with the edited version not saving - are the edits going to a different folder?

    Initially didn't see the 5, then leaned in and it popped right out at me, great capture! The street musician and ornate door knocker are toughies for me. I might need to attend the Saint Baldrick's event this weekend.
