THURSDAY’S SPECIAL: PICK A WORD IN MAY – Y3
From Paula:
It’s time for another Pick a Word themed photo challenge. This is where you may choose one, or more or all of the offered words and interpret them through photos. I hope that you will find them challenging and inspiring enough.
And the words are: iconic, propagation, cleaved, zoomorphic, marginal
And here are my “pictures and words” for Paula’s (Lost In Translation) Thursday Special challenge. I think I got them all.
In a naturally cleaved tree, you can see an old American eagle nest.
The hosta are propagating like mad as the weather warms
Zoomorphic – A healing bear fetish
Marginal – the sunken spikes long the edge of the harbor
The Superstitions – iconic rocky mountains in Arizona

Neat that American Eagle’s Nest, have you seen the Eagle that lives there?

We did, when they lived there. Birds abandon their nests when the chicks are grown and these guys left after their season in our woods. But it was wonderful seeing them every day.

The Superstitions Mountains in Arizona are definitely iconic. Great selection of photos. 😀

Every time I see what my friend Ben calls “The Supes,” I can’t even imagine trying to survive in there. They are just sharp, barren rocks. Very unfriendly and you’re right — about as iconic as anything in our west.

The ‘marginal’ photo is especially pretty. You did great considering the words chosen!

They were among the more unusual words. I was going to skip iconic and zoomorphic, but then I remembered the Superstition mountains (every western ever made has them in there somewhere) and I have a pretty big collection of Native American fetishes. Phew. Survived again! Marginal had me stumped so I just looked through the pictures and I saw that one and said, “Well — that’s pretty marginal, right?” It’s always fun trying to find a picture to match a word, especially when it’s not the kind of word you bump into every day 😀

Well done, Marilyn!

I was at a loss for zoomorphic and iconic. Then I thought of fetishes — very zoomorphic — and the Superstitions which show up in every movie about the west. That’s got to make them iconic, right?

Hostas are so rewarding, they return annually and do not need a lot of attention. I like your photo in the harbour

We got the hosta with the house. This year, they are a bit less enthusiastic than usual, but I think they’ll be okay now that the weather is (mostly) nicer. Today’s not nice, though. It’s cold and wet and nasty. AND we are going to a funeral, which is totally the worst weather for something you don’t want to do anyway.

All terrific pics with “atmosphere”.
I like the Superstition Mountains. Their myth and mystery.
