Bowling along nicely here in Rinda's enjoyable Summertime Photography Scavenger Hunt. And slipping reflectively into part 2, we have No.8, someone plugged into social media. Gosh, they start early these days ...
It's a shame the Littlies weren't at the Science Fair for No. 9, because they'd have loved the entrance to this tent ...
No. 10, a college or university, wasn't too far away, though it needed a bit of early rising in order to miss the crowds of new students in nervous groups around the entrance ...
I thought I was going to have trouble with no 11 (the satellite dish) until I moved my eyes away a few feet to the left of the ever-ascending breeze blocks next door and noticed this ... (How on earth did it slip my consciousness before?).
Ah, no.12, the restroom! This was fun. First up, we have the very old, at a National Trust stately home ...
Or we could go gleamingly modern at Belfast airport ...
And somewhere inbetween the chronology of these two (and I promise this is the last of the No. 12s!), we might pop into a kitsch-y loo in a market-town café ...
Even more brightly decorated was No. 12, the splendid carousel at Tatton Park ...
And if all that gaudy excess wasn't enough, let me present to you no.13, the traffic signal. All six of them, within a few yards of each other, to be precise. Planners, eh? What were they thinking ...
Hoping you've enjoyed a quick whirl round a bit of my world this summer, and I'm off to capture the last few. Mmm, a few challenges, I think, on that list of Rinda's! Look forward to seeing you soon?
That plugged in photo is super cute!

Your little ones plugged in is quite adorable. Such serious faces. I like your carousel photo. Your third photo of the restroom collection, well it would just give me performance issues. (lol)

Ha! They certainly want you to notice a red light don't they? [But surely at some point you become blind to them?!!]
Those first loos look suspiciously like a jail ... not sure I could quite 'relax' in there ...

Splendid snaps, that first one takes the prize, though.

Those LIttles are truly adorable! The carousel is one of the prettiest I've seen yet, and what WERE they thinking when so many traffic lights were installed?!?

Great photos for the scavenger hunt - and it reminds me that I should write my post about it. The traffic signals made me laugh...
