It’s time again for Melli’s ABC photo challenge. We’re supposed to look for letters in common everyday things or in nature without actually manipulating anything to make the letter and without photographing the letter itself in a word or sign. We’re doing two letters a week, and this week it is U and V.
I think U has been the hardest letter for me so far. At first the only thing I could find that remotely looked like a U was this sideways one on my husband’s bicycle:
And I saw a lot or arches all over town, which I considered as an upside-down U, but I wanted to find a “real” right-side up one. Finally yesterday I noticed this planter at my mother-in-law’s place was in a U shape.
It will probably look a lot nicer in a few weeks — things are just starting to bloom and green up here.
Then I also noticed the pocket on this little sewing caddy also looked like a U:
My mom gave that to me many years ago.
I noticed a lot of windows with these types of Vs in an arch:
This heart-shaped metal door decoration also is in a V shape, at least along the two outer sides:
And I think the hearts on these shelves look like stylized Vs:
…but that may be stretching it a bit. I could have used that for S, too!
You can visit Melli’s for links to the other players to see what they came up with, or to join in.







You found many u’s and v’s! I love the sewing caddy and the heart, lovely pictures!
Great letters Barbara. The heart is very nice 🙂
I would have never ‘seen’ the U in the sewing caddy pocket. Good eye for art you have.
Great eye… So many u’s and v’s!
For someone who had a hard time, you sure came up with some GOOD ones! That little pocket – I never would have caught that one! And I love the V heart basket! Very well done!!!

your first photo rather looks like a C or I have to turn around my screen, lol
the other findings are all very nice.
Thanks to Rosie’s tail I found the U first !
Very pretty! Great finds this week!
This has been fun following you as you find these letters. I can see where you really had to be on your toes with some of them. Has me actually keeping my eyes out also!
You’ve found great ones, my favourite one is the doll!
Great finds Barbara!
I love the little apron (pocket) and my favorite is the flowerbed – I love that you found that.
