Did this week fly by or what?
Time again for another Scavenger Hunt with Ashley Sisk.
~
The prompts this week are Crossed, A Glimpse, Handwritten, Bliss and Gray.
Giddyup.
~Crossed~
A bit of a stretch, as they say -- but the perpendicular crossbeams of this ranch gate serve my purpose well.
I can always be certain Mr. Cardinal will appear after it snows. I can almost set my watch by it
(if I wore a watch, which I don't.)

The Gerbera daisies were available at my grocery store this week for $4.99.
I just had to buy one.
I have no willpower when it comes to flowers.
Especially in February.
In Nebraska.

Our gray momma-cat, Gibbs, cleaning the snow from her paws,
while perched on a fence post.
Don't let her serene looks fool you.
She's feisty.

Had so much fun this week, putting this collection together for the Scavenger Hunt.

awesome picks....
Wonderful choices, Nancy... I so love your kitty pix... feisty, yes we have one too, she has a tame sounding name too, Dusty. I just call her Snark Cat... bi-purrla me thinks!
Oh Nancy, all of your photos are just gorgeus! I can't even pick a favorite! And where applied textures, your work is just amazing! It's excatly how I would like to learn to do it :)
Wonderful photos, and you met the criteria quite well! I especially love the cat B&W.
Beautiful images. Kitty looks so cozy perching on that post. It's amazing where cats are able to plop and place themselves. My ex-husband's grandmother used to say that when you see a cardinal, you should close your eyes and make a wish. I still do that to this day. Not that I'm seeing any cardinals in Kuwait. The one out your window is so pretty against the stark, white snow. Wishing you a wonderful day. Best wishes and blessings, Tammy
Really lovely images. Gibbs is my favourite - we have a gray cat too.
Happy sunday
Love the shot of Gibbs! That's too cool. And I like the ranch gate, too.
These are great, love the shot of your beautiful cat!
Great photos!
Woof!
I like feisty.
I like cats online.
Now is she looking for a dog BF?
I love the photo of the cardinal. It's dreamy quality and the teal really attract me. Very nicely done.

The way you presented that lovely Gerbera to us is exquisite....
Don't Gerbera daisies just make your heart and eyes smile - bliss indeed! Sweet shot of your kitty and creative perspective for handwritten.
I am in absolute love with the daisy photo. Loving the contrast. Plus daisies are my favourite ;)
The B&W photo is very stunning.
Love that glimpse!! And your cat, amazingly stunning!
great set. love momma-cat Gibbs, feisty or not she looks fluffy and adorable :)
What week... was there a week... ;-)
I love your interpretation and that shot of Gibbs is absolutely amazing! I love it!! Have a wonderful Sunday!
Love them all but in total awe of the cardinal and of course, I swoon over every kitty picture there is. Great job, as always!
Really beautiful set!! I think the kitty is my overall favorite. :)
Just think. Next Sunday will be March already!
Have a wonderful day! :-)
Gotta love that "pole" cat!
Excellent photos today! Isn't it amazing where kitties can perch and look comfortable! I can't resist pretty flowers at the grocery store in February either. They make me happy!

They're all great Nancy, I love the shot of your kitty.
i like this whole set! the ranch gate is great! the glimpse is perfect, and gibbs is gorgeous!
What beautiful photos - I love the dreamy, creamy effect you've achieved on them. Just lovely! Your kitty is so precious. And I LOVE the cardinal shot!
Always a pleasure to visit here and see your consistently quality pictures - especially love your last two in this set. (and laughed about your willpower comment about flowers)
I love that cat shot...you caught a great moment. I also love the subtlety of the cardinal. Glad you treated yourself to colorful flowers-in February, in Nebraska.
Loved your glimpse shot, and your grey kitty. I had one like that growing up -- she lived for 19 years!
Great set this week, Nancy. I absolutely love cardinals in the snow, but I have not snapped one this whole winter, hear them, but don't see them. I really like the new gerbera against the old photo...lovely. And that cat, great shot!!
Beautiful photos, just love your grey one.
These are amazing. Love the Glimpse shot.
I enjoy each visit to your fantastic site! Thanks for sharing your time and talent!
Beautiful! wow!
sorry I delete the first comment! anyway, these photos are very nice.
I like the way you use the textures=)
a big hug
Marisa.
What a lovely set. You always do such nice processing of your photos. The Daisy shot is just lovely. Of course you know my favorite pick is going to be Gibbs the kitty. (We were thinking alike on our Gray shots this week.)
That is one fantastic cat shot! I think she was competing for the best shot of the week! I would join in there, had I taken any shots last week. Got to get back out there.
love that gerbera... hope you're having a great weekend!
This is such a great collection. I'm afraid the week went too quickly for me. I'm not sure I'll find anything to post. I love your kitty on the post~so pretty.
"Gibbs" perched on the post is far and away my favourite. Love, love, love it! Really like the glimpse of the cardinal, too.
Love your soft coloring and toning here. Excellent!
LOVE, love, love the kitty! Great processing!
All of your photos are AMAZING.
I can't see gerbera daisies and not buy them. They are just too beautiful. And that shot of your cat - I love it so much. It's amazing how a cat can look so serene when really they are just ready to pounce on you or anything.
Lovely set, as always. I love the second!
You did such a wonderful job, Nancy! Loved all the photos, I'm going over to check it out too! Looks like fun!
These are all great! But I have to say that I absolutely love the cat portrait. Beautiful!!!
Awwww, that photo of Gibbs is postcard-perfect, Nancy! Love it! :)
Happy evening and have a wonderful new week ahead!
xo
I always look forward to seeing which photos you pick to go with the prompts, Nancy. Love Gibbs! But, your treatment of the Gerbera photo is extra-special!
Nancy, as always, I look forward to your Sunday Scavenger Hunt...Love the 'gray' cat on the post...I wonder if I could sit on a post and wash my feet~ not that I'd try it or anything...
Love them all, especially the daisy and the kitty! :)
Lovely shots as always, really enjoyed the "bliss" and "gray" captures.
Oh my...your "glimpse" is divine!
Very nice selection, my weekend needs an extra day.
Well I made it wasn't sure I was going to. Anyway I love your gray shot they all are awesome.
always a DELIGHT to visit your blog!
Love the cardinal and the cat. Excellent.
Beautiful set this week! Love the postcard and your Gray shot!
Beautiful set - I really like handwritten.
oh...I love all the shots and my favorite is that of the cat....
Oh Nancy, I love everyone of these shots! But the kitty steals my heart even if she is feisty!
I think that your cat could foil everyone she just looks so adorable, her feistyness just doesn't show!
fantastic shots and i really like the polaroid effect to them!
absolutely gorgeous! i love all of them!
very nicely done:)
