Hawthorn's April Scavenger Hunt

Today's the day we post our collection of photos for Hawthorn's monthly scavenger hunt. 

Edge ... the edge of the land where it meet the sea, this a photo from my archives taken at Trevose Head in Cornwall, just as a sea mist was rolling in.



Loaf ... very tempting to eat but I'm following the Slimming World eating plan, so this loaf was eaten by friends to save me from myself! 

Bridge ... at Farleigh Hungerford, just over the border in Somerset. If you follow the road over the bridge and drive up the hill you arrive at Farleigh Hungerford Castle, one of the many ruins in this area and once the home of one of the Magna Carta barons.

Mine ... this is Minehole Lake, once the site of iron ore open cast mining and now used for recreation by fishermen and a local sailing club.


Black ... a silhouette of the view from my back garden ... enjoying the sunset!



Own Choice ... another photo from the archives taken on the same holiday as the lighthouse photo. I found this when I was looking for the lighthouse photo and it's a timely reminder to me that I need to get out and about and start taking the sort of photos I plan but never get round to taking ... no more excuses!



 Many thanks to Kate for organising the hunt every month.

      Thanks Kate. I’m longing to spend some time by the sea again; it’s been too long so I’ll be heading that way soon.

      I like the bridge as well ... lots of happy memories of (wild) swimming in that river.

      Yes, they definitely seem to be the favourites. Apparently the bread was lovely and I’m sure you would have enjoyed it too 😂

    So many beautiful photos! So hard to say which one would be my favourite, but I'm thinking the silhouette.
