Day Thirteen. . .

A two-parter. . . Day 13 will feature one pattern from this object and Day 14 will show the rest of it. Ready? 


As for this one:


It was a placemat but the judges accepted reasonable answers - sorry, Joyce your glass bowl did not make the cut. Once again we have Phil, Ted, Joani, Mike P., Milt, Carol Mc., EMO, Mariann. Peter, Vicky, Michelle, Maeve, and Kathy B. Gold Stars are awarded tro Phil for his, "It appears to be a circular hemp made item that could be either a rug or the inside of a basket. Probably made in some third world country by some poor soul who was paid a pittance." and Mike P., who added this, "A braided burnt umber rug, maybe with a 36 circumference, resting on a dark stained pine wood floor - or, maybe in a black hole located in the Milky Way and Photoshopped in?"

Day Twelve. . .

Panic is beginning to set in as my list of "Patterns" for January's Challenge looks complete - panic in that what to do for February? Bear with me as I have some ideas. 

Enough of feeling sorry for myself, 
           here is Day Twelve's Pattern. . .



And, for those still playing along here is yesterday's challenge. . .



Phil just edged out Ted with his detailed description of what was shot, "looks like slats on a louver door - perhaps a closet door. The slats are stained and the color appears to be Minwax Early American with a polyurethane, semi gloss finish. " Ted earns a Gold Star as well for, "mahogany louvered  closet door,with urethane semi gloss finish." Others earning a nod here are Carol Mc., Michelle, Milt, Peter, Kathy B., Joani, Mike Di., and Mike P.

Day Eleven. . .

With a slight chill in the air, I have opted to go back inside for today's patterns. Fairly easy. . .



Thanks for the comments on yesterday's image shot at Burial Hill in Plymouth. It was the back of the church with overhead lights for the stained glass windows. Phil (should be excluded as he was there), Peter, Doris, Mike P., Lisa, Jeff W., Carol Mc., and Michelle. Some of you have TOO much time on your hands (Ted) with, "Stain Glass Windows with cone shaped light fixtures near the top. There is Lexon plastic covering to protect them."

Day Ten. . .

Had another opportunity to be out and about with my camera today. Thanks to Photo Buddy Phil, we shot around Burial Hill in Plymouth. So today's image is a pattern I found there. . . 



Patterns all over this one!

As for Day 09 - the Gold Star is awarded to Milt of PDP as his ability to identify the pattern was uncanny - downright scary, "The +ends of an 8 Pack of Alkaline AA batteries" Kudos to Mariann, Mike P., Mike Di., Michelle, Vicky, Joani, Phil, Joyce, Deana, Cathy K., Lisa, Cheryl, and Doris! And, Ted H.

Day Nine. . .

Glad you enjoyed some of those images from "Pattern Overload." The Bapst Library is a work of art in itself!

So here is today's pattern. . .


Answer tomorrow. . .

Day Eight. . .

Pattern Overload! 
I had an opportunity to visit and shoot Boston College's Bapst Library. I was in "Pattern Heaven!" Here are a few of the ones I shot today. I don't expect you to warrant a guess on these - unless you want to. That is what I saw as I walked in.


And, a few more patterns as well. . .






As for Day Seven - lots of correct guesses about it being wicker.
Lisa, Phil, Milt, Michelle, Joyce, Joani, Jeff W., Ted H., Carol Mc., Deana, and Vicky.

Day Seven. . .

It's now a week and I'm still going strong - thanks to many of you who continue to get involved on this blog. An easy one today after yesterday's toughie. I know, too easy. . .



We had three correct Day Six answers (Phil, Lisa, and Michelle) who felt it was a ring - it was my wedding band showing its forty-plus years. We did have a few very creative answers as well.
