Ok, here's the deal. My birthday is coming up soon and taking family and friends to Stone Mountain. We'll be having canoe races, hiking up the mountain and similar. While this is going on everyone will be participating in a photo scavenger hunt.

So, I'm looking for ideas for an appropriate list for the surroundings and the occasion. Keep in mind that this is very popular area so we'll be hiking up with likely hundreds of other people.


Photo Examples
Cutest person you find
Ugliest person you find
Most Unusual person you find
Someone that resembles the birthday boy
A wild animal
A tame animal
You doing something funny with a tree
Photo of something that starts with a J (my name is Josh)
Unexpected picture with the birthday boy
Acting out a movie scene

That is an awesome idea.


Animals beginning with the letter A, B, C and so on; admittedly, this could be more trouble than its worth.
You doing something (unusual/funny/etc) with the scenery; for example, you in the foreground pinching an unusual formation in the background.
You doing something spontaneous; star jumps!
You doing something in a group; conga line or jumping in a row


You could also have a race to spot as many birds as you can.

Damn you.

One more life goal: Perform a conga line in front of/on various world marks.

You should get a "Where is Waldo?" book and check the list of funny stuff on the back.

Give somebody a Quiz on video game franchises. Find someone who scores 70% or higher.

A rock that looks like a face.

A face that looks like a rock.

A bit of rubbish.

Myself, naked, hiding in a tree and gnawing on the marrow of squirrels.

A nice hat.

A wild animal in a goofy pose of some kind.

Wedding gift ritual, I think.

Yep, that. By tradition, a bride should have something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue on her person when she goes down the aisle.

The bride doesn't really walk down the aisle. The aisles are out towards the sides of the church. The bride walks down the 'central passageway'.
It just doesn't sound right for a bride to say that she wishes for her father to take her down the central passageway. Sounds better to say 'down the aisle'.
QI taught me that.


On topic:
- In/on the river/lake (if there's a river/lake nearby)
- What time is it? Set a specific time that they need to take a picture and prove that it was at that time. (bonus points for cheating and setting their clock forward/back to the correct time and taking a picture)

QI taught me that.I literally (literally literally) said that as I was asking my boy and housemate how you spell "aisle". Seriously. Think I got it from QI as well.
