PhotoHunt
STRING(S)
I had no idea what to post for this week, not even an idea to pursue with my camera. But browsing through my library of photos I came across this one. Strings. Of course, perfect.
This photo was taken at a garden tour which the Faculty Women's Club held as a fund raiser. We toured various members' gardens and there were little snacks and drinks provided at some houses and musical interludes too. This was the last garden I visited and we sat in the shade of the trees, sipping a cold drink, for it was a hot summer day, listening to the son of one of our members who is accompanying him on the grand piano, play the cello out on the sundeck. What a lovely finish to a very pleasurable tour and we raised a goodly sum for the ten scholarships which our club provides at the University of British Columbia.

A good photo for strings. It is a nice thing your club does.
Nice choice! I have a musical instrument as well this week. Happy hunting!
I love the cello! I thought about taking a photo of the inside of my baby grand - but decided on my harp instead!! (much easier!) Lovely photo
Happy weekend

A nice variation on "strings".
Nice take on the theme. Great photo too.
Lovely photo for the strings theme :) Thanks so much for stopping by :)
Glad to hear about that lovely garden tour you had.
I bet it was beautiful...
Perfect for this week's theme... it took me forever to find something and it was right under my nose all the time...LOL
Instrument's string is definitely a perfect match for this week. Nice one. Happy weekend.
Beautiful strings that the cello has and beautiful music it makes as well :)
Great choice of subject for this week's Photo Hunt! :)
That's perfect for the theme. What a great finish to the tour to listen to music in the garden. The garden tour sounds like a good fundraiser for an important cause. Hope you have a great weekend. Thanks for visiting us at Snap2. I'm doing the snap2 visiting this weekend (we alternate) so if I don't come back as me and repeat myself, that's why. Well I am me but hopefully that makes sense, Carver
wow like to play cello one day...Nice one.
excellent post for strings, I did not even think of an instrument
Oh how lovely! I haven't done a garden tour in years. :)

I struggled too and like most weeks, something came to the fore. Have a nice weekend.

That's an activity for a worthy cause. It would be lovely to peep into people's houses. :)

You're right! This is a great photo for The Hunt this week. How great that you raise $ for scholarships. Happy hunting.
that's a perfect picture for the theme....see I was looking for something in my collection like that...
Yes! I imagine that was a perfectly delightful event. Love it, JMB.
I've seen a few guitars but not a cello! You do have a good time with your group, don't you?
Beautiful shot, the color of the cello is gorgeous! Thanks for visiting and happy hunting!
i've always loved stringed instruments but i'm only limited to playing guitars and ukes. cellos and violins are always my frustrations. nice!
That's a lovely pic and I feel as if I were there.
What a lovely way to spend an afternoon!
Great cause and I love seeing young musicians.
That's perfect for the theme.
I love the little yellow wheelbarrow ;)
Which one are you, JMB?
Ah lovely. Looks like a great way to spend an afternoon.
A great photo choice JMB. What a pleasant tour that must have been!
Excellent take, though I don't see the actual strings hehe... :)
Yes, I could I was listening to the real thing right now.
... I had a dream about Irish fiddleplayers only last night...
Perfect for this week's theme! Have a wonderful day.
lovely shot for strings. My daughter used to play the cello (then life got too busy for her!)
