Scavenger Hunt!

A family at church decided it would be fun to do a photograph scavenger hunt, so yesterday after church we did! We split into two teams and each team had a camera and designated one member to take all of the pictures. The goal was to attempt to only take one picture, in essence we had one shot to demonstrate each of the requirements on our list. Then we'd judge to see whose picture turned out best in portraying each objective. However, it just wouldn't work out for us to judge our own work....

So..... we decided it would be really fun if YOU participated in our fun and helped us out! Please leave a comment and let us know which group you thought captured the best shot for each task.
(please note: those who participated in the Photo Scavenger Hunt are not eligible to vote but all others are welcome.)

Here was our list that we had to fulfill:
1. "I can't believe we all fit in here!"
2. "Can you find us?"
3. Everyone's reflection in something other than a mirror
4. Doing exactly what a sign says
5. Getting ready for church
6. Everyone doing the same job
7. Applying a Bible verse
8. Picture taken with a street name beginning with the first letter of the last names in the group.

Team One:
Rachel F. (the appointed photographer), Karen F., Josiah F., Channing R., Patrick R., Janelle R.

Team Two:
J.c. P. (the appointed photographer), Shelly P., Jack P., Sarah F., Daniel F., Victoria F., Isaac R., Mary Ellen R.

First Picture....
1. "I can't believe we all fit in here!"

 Team 1, piled into Billy's truck!

Team 2, piled into the back of Mary Ellen's car!

Second Picture...
2. "Can you find us?"

 Team 1

 
Team 2

Third Picture...
3. Everyone's reflection in something other than a mirror

 Team 1

Team 2
(It should be noted that Shelly is not really in this picture although you can see whisps of her hair in the bottom right corner. Also J.c., the photographer made it into this picture!)

Fourth Picture...
 4. Doing exactly what a sign says


Team 1
(It should be noted that The United Church of Christ is NOT the church we attend)

Team 2

Fifth Picture...
5. Getting ready for church

 Team 1

Team 2

Sixth Picture...
6. Everyone doing the same job

 Team 1

Team 2
(It should be noted that Team Two was down three members because they had to leave before this picture was taken)

Seventh Picture...
7. Applying a Bible verse

Team 1

2 Timothy 2:15 
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, 
a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, 
rightly dividing the word of truth.

Team 2

Romans 6:13 
Neither yield ye your members as  
 instruments of unrighteousness unto sin:  
but yield yourselves unto God, 
as those that are alive from the dead, 
and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.

Eighth Picture...
8. Picture taken with a street name beginning with the first letter of the last names in the group.

Team 1
(It should be noted that since Team One was not able to find street names that began with the letters R and F they decided that desired letters on the back of the stop sign would work as a substitute. They did not, however, write the letters on the stop sign.)

Team 2

 Team 2
(It should also be noted that Team Two did not find a street name with the letter P)
(An interesting observation: although Team Two had an extra letter to find, they happened to find the same two letters that the other group had to find)
