Challenge

So I got this in the mail:

Pictoral Scavenger Hunt

to help make your last couple weeks more interesting, at least while you're walking around the city (bring your camera everywhere)...

1. a middle-aged man wearing trench coat and bowler
2. a bulldog

This bulldog's name is Success.

Please also note the steel-toed boot in the corner. I love it when people adhere to stereotypes!

3. an animal (living creature) bigger than a dog

Hey, guess what, I live by a zoo:

Guess what else, it costs a ton of money to go into the zoo. Thus the fence:

Zookeepers.

Warthogs: Still bigger than dogs.

4. someone swimming

I think that ought to cover it, since I felt SUPER CREEPY taking these pictures, and will not be doing it again.

5. a grandfather clock

I thinkI can do better than this. We'll see.

6. a can of baked beans

By the crate.


By the can.

Enough with the beans.

7. a gun or cannon

Ok, first, the loose interpretation:

Guns and cannons. Did you know, in Ethiopian art, 'good' characters are signified by the 3/4 view, and 'bad' characters are always in profile? I did not know this, but now I will never forget it. Thanks, photo challenge!

Now getting realer:

Not only is this a gun...it's a 16th century grenade launcher:

What a shame there aren't more of these floating around.

And now:

Guns. Clap your hands for the British Museum.

8. your hand in a lobster tank
9. someone (living person) playing a wind/brass instrument
10. yourself with smiling child (simpsons reference)

Unfortunately it is both rainy and exam season, so I'm not doing as much wandering as I should. I'm also not doing as much studying as I should, so I will update as I collect these.

Anybody got any good ones to add?
