Saturday Scavenger Photo Hunt

It's Saturday so it must be the Saturday Photo Hunt. After scavenging through old photo for this this weeks theme I accidentally deleted the whole post....Geesh! So here is my second attempt....

This weeks theme is "Water"......I love water and fear it at the same. It quenches our thirst, it cleanses us both body and soul, it bathes us with natural wonder. Water has the ability to provide fun and fear at the same time. It is one of natures natural elements that needs to be respected......


Water provides a home for one of natures mightiest of creatures....the Beluga Whale

The fresh mountain water can be enticing to the young at heart.....

It provides hours of enjoyment for the curious mind......

It provides a home and nourishment for all of it's creatures.....

For the adventurous it provides a gateway to explore the world around us

It provides beauty

And a path to follow......

Finally it provides an environment for the mighty eagle to soar.......

Happy Hunting all.......

I can hardly wait until the streams and lake are warm enough for these old bones to enjoy a dip. The kids look like they are having a great time. For my contribution, I chose water reflections around my floating cabin in Coastal BC. I invite you to come see. -- Margy

I love your story about water. Lovely photos - isn't it amazing how most kids just love to play in the water! :D

Beautiful photos! I agree, water is a great element that should be given ample respect. It can be magnificently calm and it can also be rough and dangerous.

Thank you for visiting.
