I am not sure I would have been that quick on my feet. I guess I'm too honest, because I often tell people what I'm doing and why I want a specific photo, whether it's for this hunt or a just because photo. This summer, however, I've gotten a bit sneakier and have used my long lens more and more to keep far in the background.<br /><br />I'm so thrilled you put this project together, and I've really enjoyed it for a second year in a row. I never had a digital camera that would have taken decent photos before that!Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7671093558941693832.post-77542090487239015702015-08-31T11:50:37.397-07:002015-08-31T11:50:37.397-07:00I don't know what I'd do if I spotted some...I don't know what I'd do if I spotted someone photographing my door.

I explained why and he said yes. Then he said that the one on his chest was much better and proceeded to unbutton and expose!!<br />He was quite pretty and very young but the tattoo was good LOLLadkyishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08835766855890936214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7671093558941693832.post-55812996571434922662015-08-31T04:40:43.126-07:002015-08-31T04:40:43.126-07:00I think the Scavenger Hunt makes us do things we w...I think the Scavenger Hunt makes us do things we wouldn't normally do.
