JUNE 2011 PHOTO CONTEST
Posted on June 2nd, 2011 47 commentsJune 2nd already—so time for another contest.
Thanks again for all of those that entered last month, this month should be much bigger and better.
The winner receives a new 7 inch HD Television, worth $75. (this is really a great little TV!!!!)
Pictures of the TV will be posted next week.NOTE: The subject this month is ‘IN THE GARDEN’. Types of garden pictures are: flowers, fruits, vegetables, people in the garden, blossoms, lawns, beautiful yards and garden layouts.
Only one picture of each subject may be submitted. Only enter one subject once.HERE ARE THE RULES.
1. You can enter each day if you would like, but send ONLY ONE PHOTOGRAPH EACH DAY.
2. The contest starts today, June 2, 2011 and goes until June 30, 2011.
3. Here is the tricky part. Do not duplicate subjects, send only one picture of each subject. For example, if you have five pictures of tulips, send only the best picture you have. Only one picture of a pumpkin, one picture of a flowering apple tree, and one picture of a group of lilies, or a single lilie, you get the idea. So this means, pick your favorite picture of each subject and send it, I only want your best.
4. ONLY PICTURES TAKEN BY YOU ARE ELIGIBLE, pictures entered by ‘Frank’ must be taken by ‘Frank’.
5. You can’t submit for someone else, everyone must enter their own pictures, using their own email.

Violets are starting to bloom next to a snowbank – April 2011. Even though they are still blooming (June) and are much more beautiful and covered with blossoms, I am entering this picture because it shows their personality.

This picture is of Gene and his dad having a fun moment in the yard. But the reason I posted this picture: check out the apple tree in the background. We have enjoyed the fruits of that tree for many years. 1976

My friends peony garden. They go around the perimeter of their front yard and porch. Gorgeous! Fragrant too. This year they bloomed later than usual due to the cold earlier spring weather we’ve had. This picture was taken just this evening 06/11/11. Thats my daughter Jess and friend in background enjoying them.

Bouquets for Memorial Day. Mom always worried about the flowers being all gone by Memorial Day, but we always came up with some beautiful ones. 1987

Sometimes the best way for Anna to help in the garden is to play next to the garden while mom and dad do the dirty work. Planting time is a great time for a pool party.

We went to a zoo in Logan when I took this photo of an unlikely subject.

A garden is a perfect place for a party. Even if it is pouring down rain and you are covered in mud.

These are last year’s “Gorkins” I was telling you about at the show. This is what happens when you throw your old pumpkins and gourds into the garden in the Fall and let them go at it the next Spring.

There are always plenty of these in and about my yard. The grandkids like to pick them (in their flowering stage) and bring me a bouquet. And every kid will pick them in their seed stage and blow the seeds to scatter in the wind. 2011

So delicate. Wish I knew what they were! If anybody does let me know. Again, in nature’s garden…
Is that OK Pam? I am a big hobbyist of natural photography and photograph mostly wildflowers on the many hikes we take.

These strawberries volunteered in my fire pit – they actually look better than the strawberries in the garden. Where did those seeds come from? 2011

I took this picture when I visited Temple Square with my parents. I’m not sure what to call it, other than “Jagged Tulip.”

Mom called this a little yellow rose. I am not sure of the correct name, but it sure dresses up a bouquet. 2011
