1. In Disguise
A little monkey disguised as a cute toddler, wearing a monkey t-shirt standing in front of a pub called "Monkey." ;-)
2. Crisp
The day is took this picture was a day of rejoicing. We were out of money two days before payday. My husband found this very crisp bill stashed in his wallet. Woohoo!
3. Fall Colors
No fall season where I live but I saw fall colors when I saw my son sitting and waiting for me at Starbucks - brown boy on a brown and orange chair wearing a shirt with fall colors on it.
4. Jack O' Lantern
Where I live we don't have pumpkins like the kind they carve in the U.S. And definitely no jack o' lanterns. A friend bought this muffin for my little boys.
5. Shot from the Ground
I love the sunset reflected on this old and rusted water tower behind our place.
6. Landscape
I'm so blessed to live in the country side where there are rice paddies everywhere. It's so beautiful out here! Here, the paddies are reflected on our friend's van windows.
7. Fall Tradition
Cool rainy nights + camping = perfect time for smores - a fall tradition!
8. Books
These mini books are ready to be distributed to our young disciples.
9. Dining
Last week we served pancakes in our Student Center/Church. 17 kids had pancakes for the first time EVER!
10. Child/Children
Oh the crazy things a child can come up with! This is my middle son washing his face by dipping it in our neighbor's cistern. Hahahaha! 11. Faces Formed in Nature
Holes on the road
12. Tilt-Shift Photography
An old broom made of bamboo and coconut. NO software used to create tilt-shift effect. :-)
13. B&W with Selective Coloring
There's an abundance of this plant in these parts.
14. Bokeh
A cut rose from my garden, placed in a glass. I did manual focus to achieve this effect.
15. Best Photo Taken - October 23rd
I love the beautiful sunsets we have here, pretty much year round.
16. Something from the Kitchen
It's a travel mug but I'm a stay at home mom so I use this mug for my coffee at home.
17. Something Vintage
Well... wadja know! I walked to the pub down the street to take a photo of the vintage-looking motorbike used as a decoration. It was gone. But I found this one instead. On Halloween night, the pub showed scary movies using this vintage 35-mm film projector. When my 9-yr old son saw this he asked, "What is that thing?" Hahahaha! (Also, submitting this photo for Sunday Creative at Justine's Blog for this week's theme: OBSOLETE)
18. Something Creepy
Thais tie these colorful tulles on a tree and they burn incense and pray away the evil spirits lurking around the neighborhood. Sounds creepy to me!
19. Something Golden
I climbed on the other end of this fence at my mother-in-law's house to get this shot. You can just imagine the stares: #1) No one else carries a dslr camera in our area. #2) A 4'11" girl climbing on a fence to take a picture of what??? A fence? For what? Hahaha!
20. Self-Portrait
I dreaded this one. I waited until the very last day to do this and found out that self-portraiture is definitely not as glamorous as it sounds. Try to beat that 10-second timer from a few yards away on an uneven ground. I almost fell into the water for this shot. Now, that would have been hilarious!!!

Good thing hindi ka nahulog sa tubig. But it's still my favorite. True, beat a 10sec timer just to get a self photo-priceless!
thanks for checking out my entries!
Pancakes for the first time ever! Wow! For a long time, pancakes were out Saturday morning tradition. I also totally understand the travel mug... before my sister was a Mom, she didn't understand WHY I would drink out of a travel mug in my own home. And I've been known to drink out of a sippy cup in public. I need to be as spill proof as possible, with the little ones around! :)
Nice interpretations!
jackolantern, landscape, and dining were awesome, but so were they all. =) Loved the self portrait...self timer is tough...i had a hard time getting mine to focus on the spot where I'd be going...lol! you did great though!
These are all so great - not sure I can choose a favorite! I adore your photo from the 23rd, though...gorgeous! Your landscape shot is super-creative - love it! Thanks for stopping by:)
There were so many shots here that I loved but your landscape shot blew me away. You sunset was also really beautiful.
Love your shot from the ground, landscape, best photo... well, they're all really cool! :)
These are lovly. I love the bokeh shot.
Great shots!! I love them all, but my favorites were shot from ground and landscape (the reflection was awesome and very unique).
Your pictures are great. I love the self portrait. It turned out really good!
Great set of photos for the hunt! My favorite is the shot from the ground.
Darlene - I loved looking at your photos and the stories behind them. My favorite picture is the landscape - your friend had really clean windows! I laughed at the story behind the fence. I'm self-conscious with my dslr but I cannot imagine if no one else had one. Great photos!
I love them all! It's really neat to see pictures from a different country!
I took the "My Town" picture from your post below and made it into a tiltshift picture. Turned out pretty cool, so I thought I'd shareit:

This may sound cliche, but there was not a picture that I could not count as a favorite. I can't wait to see more. I'm your new follower!

Thank-u for stoppin by...you have done a fabulous job on all your shots...my favourites are child, self-portrait (I think we all dreaded that one, I know, I did) and your landscapes is breathtaking....well with that said again you did a fantastic job on all of them!!
your photos are great, it 's hard to pick a favorite - I'm glad you didn't fall in the water though!
Love, love, love your landscape! Great self portrait too! Glad you didn't fall into the lake!
mmmm I love your fall tradition! And your child shot of your son in the water is just too cute!
10 seconds on a self-timer is not nearly long enough to get into position and look natural, is it? I think you did a great job and you didn't fall in the water!
Great shots, love how creative your landscape photo is!

Thanks for dropping by my site.

You did a fantastic job with the challenge - I really enjoyed all your interpretations of the US/fall related things that obviously don't happen in Thailand.
Thanks for commenting on my photos, Darlene! As for wrinkles... I like to chalk it up to a lot of laughing... :)
