PHOTO HUNTERS #9 -- CREATIVE


Click on photo to enlarge to see all the details. I spotted this garden art on one of my walks in a former neighborhood.

This art was painted by local artists on the trestle of a railroad track crossing over the road.


Some local artists painted a long section in panels depicting the military history of our country along the retaining wall of the railroad tracks above it. This is just one sectin of their long mural.

My Kindergarten class and their families created these turkey disguises one year. I thought they were pretty creative!

The gnome is adorable in the garden! And I love the murals people paint on the outside of buildings. We have some here too, but didn't think to photograph them. Must make a point of that to put in my files. Love the Turkey Disguise too. All are very original. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend.

Those are all great shots, but I hope not too many turkeys get that idea, lol.

I love the idea of a turkey disguise. The Night Before Thanksgiving is one of my favorite books to read with the kids and it would be a perfect tie in to create their own turkey disguise! Thanks for the creative idea!

I love the wheelbarrow. I have seen them as raised beds, but never as a feature such as this. It is great.

What a creative garden scene with the wheelbarrow. I love it. I'm not as fond of graffiti, but think it is quite clever when used to improve the looks of a something that is otherwise unattractive. Thanks for visiting Pollywog Creek, Paulie, and for leaving a kind remark. I hope you are having a wonderful weekend.
