With more time for the letter P, this hunt should be fabulous for everyone, right ..? 😊Avec plus de temps pour la lettre P, cette chasse devrait être exceptionnelle chez tout le monde, n'est-ce pas..? 😊
A présent, j'ouvre cette nouvelle semaine de chasse avec ma sélection de mots commençant par la lettre OA présent, j'ouvre cette nouvelle semaine de chasse avec ma sélection de mots commençant par la lettre O
----------------
After this selection, you will find the result of the draw and everything you need to know to participate in this huntVous trouverez après cette sélection le résultat du tirage au sort et tout ce que vous devez savoir pour participer à cette chasse

Owl

Here is an owl edited by me a few years agoVoici une chouette éditée par mes soins il y a quelques années


hibou.jpg

she is part of the critters in my book "the enchanted bestiary"elle fait partie de mon livre "le bestiaire enchanté"

Octopus


P_20190803_183818-01.jpeg

Whimsical one of course, since it is one of my paintings made last year 😊Fantaisiste bien sûr puisqu'il s'agit d'une de mes peintures réalisée l'année dernière 😊


f0pmxabybl.png

Oreos

Again an edited photo where the Oreo is the model 😉A nouveau une photo éditée, où le biscuit est encore une fois le mannequin 😉
I've never eaten Oreos but I photographed some ... LoL..A perfect name for an O hunt in fact 😁Je n'ai jamais mangé d'Oréo mais j'en ai photographié un...LoL..Un nom parfait pour une chasse a l'O en fait 😁

Orchard

Here is the pretty orchard of my in-laws in AlsaceVoici le joli verger de ma belle-famille en Alsace

Ocean


Ocean.jpg

What I like about the ocean is its tidal movement ...Ce que j'apprécie avec l'océan c'est son mouvement de marées...
I live near a large lake and it's rather static, so the ocean tides are really very exotic for me 😊Je vis auprès d'un grand lac et c'est plutôt statique, alors les marées de l'océan sont vraiment très dépaysantes pour moi 😊


f0pmxabybl.png

Obsolete and Old

If you still have one you know how obsolete this item is, right?Si vous en avez encore un vous savez à quel point cet objet est obsolète, n'est-ce pas ?
vintage, but obsolete, and outdated by technology ... 😁vintage, mais obsolete, dépassé par la technologie...😁


20160403_122133-01.jpeg

but old does not always mean obsolete ...mais vieux ne signifie pas toujours obsolete...
----------------
look at the books, they may be old but they are not obsoletes because you can still read them 😉regardez les livres, ils peuvent être vieux mais ne sont pas obsoletes pour autant car on peut toujours les lire 😉

What a fabulous selection of O! You never fail to amaze me with your photos. I love the obsolete and old the most, perhaps it ignited the antique lover side of me. 😂

But the teal-eyed owl is awesome, looking so real with those piercing eyes directly staring at me. 😍

Beautiful selection @barbara-orenya! ❤

Well, I'll go to vacation and do intend to take a break from my screen and be fully present with my family, so I'll do some curation and maybe a comment or two, but globally I will be ghosting the place during august 😁

Thank you so much @qwerrie 😄

I think we all need a Summer break and I'm going to do the same ... have already started it: a bit curating, less commenting and from next week on only short posts, if any.

But today I have to finish my O post and I think I'll have to cheat 😉

I will still need the computer, because if I don't edit my photos at least every few days it will come too much together.

The O post tonight will be my last longer post for a while, but if I find some time in-between I will make a short one-photo-post from time to time 😉

At first I want to thank you so much Barbara and congratulate my co-winners @nelinoeva, @missagora, @isabelpena and @elizacheng as well as all other participants - we have seen so many great posts this week 😄

Your words are again very good and thoughtful, Barbara, and your illustrations and photos are amazing as always 😁

So you need a Summer break? Well, me too, and this break gives us all a lot of time to find new words and photos 😉

You are welcome @johannpiber !

I feel we are all at the end of the roll, as we say in french 😁 Anyway it's always good to take a brake to renew ourselves and bring back something new and energised...😉

This next five days I have my sister in law at home, and then by the tenth we will do a roadtrip to visit family in west and east during two weeks, we hope to find some coolness, we have such dog days here in Annecy ! 🤪

a !BEER shared is even better and refreshing, thank you @johannpiber and cheers !

That's true, especially after the past months a break is important and necessary.

I have just replied to @qwerrie that I am also slowing down for a while.

We had a rainstorm last night, and the air has cooled down a bit, but now it is hot again, but it's Summer and I prefer a hot Summer to a rainy Summer, which we have also had before 😉

We haven't planned any vacation yet, but we might spend some time with my parents and on the mountains.
And there will certainly be a few motorbike trips in the next week's 😁

I wish you a happy and relaxing time with your family and hopefully you'll find some coolness 😄

Cheers with a cool !BEER Barbara 🍻

I will tell you my own thoughts about your being so fast in my comment 😉 lol

Just as last week I had 5 words ready, but I haven't found a sixth word - so, this week my sixth word is a little bit of a cheat, because it's no real word in my eyes 😁

Woohoo, thank you Barbara! I lost counts how many times I won, I am bloody lucky, am I not? 😀
Congratulations to the other winners!

Old and obsolete is fantastic duo and I am sure that you can make every old object to look terrific.
The owl is great to start the hunt. And all illustrations are simply awesome.

I don't know why I thought the O hunt will be more challenging. Now more words pop up in my mind and I will start to collect the photos.

It is good to have a well deserved holiday and to have more time for yourself and your family.👍

Truly lovely photos @barbara-orenya especially love the one with vintage phone. I have a wonderful mid century phone in blue that I keep in our hallway, even though it's not hooked up, it's fun to wonder what would happen if it rang! :)

Once again, your word choices for this week are awesome: owl, ocean, old and obsolete, octopus and orchard (the last two I've also picked for this week's hunt-- beautiful peeps think alike, what can I say, 😁LOL)!
So here's my article for... ENJOY!

This is a funny thing to do, once you've decided you will give the alphabet hunt a try, you see things around you differently..as well as your files of photos when you browse them, you think in term of words to define a scene and of initials that match a hunt you are doing or that you put aside for later use..😉
looking forward to reading your O hunt 😊

Oh, your owl is amazing! I know how you feel! I am thinking #MarketFriday may need a break. I am so overwhelmed with life right now! I hate to disappoint all the new people though.

This has been so fabulous! I have enjoyed each and every one! Thank you!

People have reacted so nicely to the break...lol...I think that in fact they would not like to miss one letter while they are taking some vacations so they are relieved the hunt will not go on without them 😉 That's a bit specific to this challenge, but with the marketfriday you could take a break and let people do their posts if they want, you just announce them that you will not be there during a period of time, but for that you must not feel guilty of whatever my dear, you are not obliged to comment and upvote each post (but I know exactly how you feel, I'm kinda the same 😄 )
OR
you could ask someone as mod of the community and ask to do the job for a while...(don't ask me, I'm kinda overwhelmed with mine + feathered friends...LoL)

Haha ! not that I don't want but I humanly not CAN 😁 🤪
Nobody will leave you my dear, and the secret is to find the right mod that will be as invested as you are while you are off sipping your pina colada 😄 Either than me I don't know who to recommend you but of course he/she exists 😁 who would you say is the most involved in the friday market ? that is the person to contact and ask to be your clone

Beautiful post. This is the first time I have read your Alphabet Hunt. I thought that if you missed the beginning, which is letter A, you do not qualify anymore. Now I understand it better and it does seem like a very good challenge as well. I'll try to post something before Wednesday. I have a question though. Does it matter if the words you choose have been used already by some other participants?

I struggled trying to get my post up on time after using the Ecency app for hours before finally giving up and throwing my smartphone hands in the air. It kept closing and not keeping my changes despite my hitting the little save icon constantly. Grrr!Fortunately, I was able to use Peakd. Here's my entry for the week!✍📱😀

incredibly nice "obsolete and old" illustrations! (maybe its rather old, then obsolete). actually, nnow I can have a closer look at your pickups -- I like all of them! and 2/3 are coincide with mine, to some extinction. I do not have ocean images but if only I had, I'd definitely choose it. same with octopus and orchard. and I actually grabbed an owl. i.e. all in all, we have matches in pickups, and I enjoy this fact!

ps. why you've never eaten Oreos, I wonder?..
