That is a nice composition. You’re probably the only person who tried to actually take the photo within 5 minutes of waking. ---

Nice idea in theory but I have a feeling it wouldn’t work too well. I say we just go on the way we have, though it would be nice to respect anyrose’s wish to post the next. But, as happened with me, if a couple days go by and she hasn’t posted one, then it’s fair game for everyone else 😉 ---

Hey, wait a minute! I FINALLY find time to take some shots specifically for this thread. BTW, thanks to **Whammo** ) for plugging my photos earlier in this thread! Anyways, here’re my last minute entries: [Purple](http://static.flickr.com/41/104153979_930f0353ae_b.jpg) (Man, this was tough. I have virtually no purple items in my house). [The Word](http://www.flickr.com/photos/hodge/104049863/in/photostream/) [Switch](http://www.flickr.com/photos/hodge/104049847/in/photostream/) (My bedside lamp) [My choice](http://www.flickr.com/photos/hodge/75363224/in/set-374314/) (since **Whammo** posted some IR shots (very cool) I thought I’d post a favourite of my own, taken in Scotland this past November). Hopefully, this bump will prompt some other last minute entries! Hodge ( [my photostream](http://www.flickr.com/photos/hodge/) ) ---

OK, here we go… these pictures are pretty rough, I just took them all this morning (except for the purple; like Hodge I just don’t have anything purple in my house, and I never spotted anything photoworthy while I was out and about, so I used an old pic for that one): [Words (excuse the horrid handwriting!)](http://www.flickr.com/photos/26524276@N00/104569752/in/set-1801547/) [What I see within five minutes of waking up - if not sooner!](http://www.flickr.com/photos/26524276@N00/104569730/in/set-1801547/) [Purpley goodness](http://www.flickr.com/photos/26524276@N00/85140346/in/set-1801547/) [Some Irish boys (Photographer’s Choice) Ok, so this is an old picture too, but the other pics I took this morning just weren’t worthy of sharing](http://www.flickr.com/photos/26524276@N00/72146767/in/set-1801547/) ---

> [@Hodge](#): > > [Purple](http://static.flickr.com/41/104153979_930f0353ae_b.jpg) (Man, this was tough. I have virtually no purple items in my house). Cool picture. Why do you have one of these and what’s in the background? **Everyone else:** If there’s any interest, I’ve got three Shutterfly coupon codes to give away to anyone who’s posted a photo in this thread. And it’s not too late to add one! **Code 1: One 11x14 poster print and one 16x20 poster print.** ([More info](https://amazon.shutterfly.com/secure/amazon/sign_up_posterprints.jsp) / Expires 11:59pm PST Feb 28, 06 – so hurry on this one.) 2x **Code 2: One free photo mug (as in cup) and one free photo mousepad.** ([More info](https://amazon.shutterfly.com/secure/amazon/sign_up_mugandmousepad.jsp) / Expires 11:59pm PST Mar 31, 06.) I got these from past Amazon purchases but I don’t have any good pictures to use them on. You can use the codes with any digital photo; it doesn’t have to be from this thread. If anyone wants one, just post a reply here to claim the code and then email me (or include your email) so I can send you the actual code. Consider it a (somewhat lame, I know :D) prize for joining this assignment! ---

After checking to be sure that I can get international shipping at an affordable rate, I’d be glad to take Code 1 - I have a couple of candidates in mind that I’d love to have printed in large format, which my printer can’t manage. ---

I’d like one of the code 2’s - a mug and a mousepad - now I have to choose which photo! 😃 ---
