Photos of numbers is back! Thank you so much to everyone who took part in yesterday’s Instagram challenge – these are my favourite snaps…

The fantastically retro “Alabama 7” was snapped by @designfizz and was spotted near Elizabeth Bay in Sydney. Bringing a bit of sunshine to a rainy day, @octobercomms, shared number 60 on a beach hut. And finally, thank you @helenyoyo for the 123 with a splash of yellow!

If you want to get involved next week, share you photos of numbers on Instagram, at any point on Thursday, include #photosofnumbers and @coadg in the caption or comments, and I’ll share my favourites on the blog next Friday.

Have a great weekend all!

    I love photos of numbers, and isn’t it a weird thing? Why so many of us love looking at photos of every day objects like that, but put into a completely different context just by the act of photographing them 🙂

    I’ve never seen anyone focus on numbers during photography. I like it :). Definitely a lot more interesting than yet another photo of a wall.
