WEEKLY PHOTO CHALLENGE: COLOR

Posted bypatriciasandsPosted inUncategorizedTags:, , , ,

Or should I say coloUr? It just depends where you live, eh?

The weekly photo challenge from The Daily Post had me flipping through my photo library and sinking into delicious shades of fuchsias, greens, yellows, blues, to mention a few of my favourite colourful shots.

Something was nagging away at me the entire time and it soon became clear that the way colour calls out to me in the most resounding and boisterous way is the in combination and vibrancy of hues, shades and pigments that speak to me – particularly in the south of France.  I know, I know … I’m hopeless …

As the Billie Holiday song goes, “I’ve got it bad and that ain’t good.”

This is what I mean:

How do you feel about colour/color? Do you prefer to lose yourself in the depths of intensity of a single colour or is your eye more drawn to the busier combinations? Or is your interpretation something completely different? You are going to love visiting  some of these other sites. Here are a few of my faves. Visit the Weekly Photo Challenge page for more.

Patricia Sands lives in Toronto, Canada when she isn't somewhere else, particularly the south of France. With a happily blended family of seven adult children and, at last count, six grandchildren, life is full and time is short. Beginning with her first Kodak Brownie camera at the age of six, she has told stories all of her life through photography. Much to her surprise a few years ago, she began to write and has now published three novels, including two that are part of a six-book series set in the south of France. Love France? Love her work! Check out her website www.patriciasandsauthor.com She is particularly drawn to the rewarding friendships of women and the challenges many embrace once their families are grown. "It's never too late to begin something new," she enthuses. "As the saying goes, just do it!"

  2. Gorgeous, Patricia. I snuck a snapshot of coloUrful local women in a flower booth on Pentaling Street in Kuala Lampur. Vibrant smiles, and vibrant colours in their dress and in the carnations, roses and more surrounding them. One of my favoUrites.

    1. Thanks, Niamh. Nice to see you here and I’ve been enjoying your poetry even when I haven’t commented. It’s only been because of a shortage of time, not a shortage of interest.
