photo scavengerhunt: on the road

Taken while on the road when Sarah, my sister, was giving me a ride home last week.

I just love all that you can see in the reflection on her sunglasses.

Very cool 'on the road' picture. I have to agree - the reflection of the glasses are very cool.

I came to check your photo hunt entry, and spent two hours reading your stuff! Just where have you been all my life??? *grin*

Couldn't find the last part of your "why"-series... Is it still unpublished? Eewww... now I can't sleep not knowing what happened next!

Ok, just kidding - but half of it is true :D I'm subscribing your feed, so maybe the last part will eventually "blob" into my Bloglines?

The comments to this entry are closed.

do you know what they mean? What are they? Do you know what they mean?? Take a guess in the comments. I'll let you know this weekend who gets it right.

what they mean Thanks to all who played along and tried to guess what these things were: Michelle (a missionary in South Korea), who said she was taking a "LONG shot" guessed the answer to what they mean very well!! They are based on a foreign language, but not Greek like Crystal (a friend from college now living in the UK) thought. But, they are two different symbols inspired by an ancient form of Chinese calligraphy called the seal script, which is closer to what Claire (a Taiwanese woman living in Canada) elluded to. As you probably know the 2008 summer Olympics are going to be held in China. For each Olympics, the hosting country gets to create the pictograms for the sports. Earlier this month, they announced what the seals for the olympics are going to look like. The two pictograms above represent diving and judo--just two of the thirty-five pictograms that "integrate [the] pictographic charm of inscriptions on bones and bronze objects in ancient China with [the] simplified embodiment of modern graphics." Fun, right? I just love them. Here are some more: See all 35, more about them, and pictograms from previous Olympics here.
