This scavenger hunt is a different theme from the first one. Instead of searching Hypography for items, you will be searching the real world, and then posting what you find here in the form of pictures. All pictures must be original. Some of the items may be sitting around your house. Others may be found nearby. Still others you might need to go out and find. And in some cases you might need to do something to get the picture.

Find as many as you can. It is OK to post what others have already posted, so if I post a picture of kids playing in the sprinkler, everyone else still needs to post that picture for their own collection.

We will have a photo contests among the entries in the Scavenger Hunt. We will vote for nominees and then have a regular poll to vote for winners.

Prizes? To be announced. Stay tuned…
