Lens-Artists Challenge #195: Colourful Expressions
Is the colour you like bold or subdued. Should a photo stand out on it’s own or blend the colours? Does it sit at the front or stay in the back for someone to discover? I think I like colour. My house is colourful and my garden is colourful.
I don’t know where to start or what I am doing but lets see where this post takes you and me.
Let’s kick off with selective colour, one of my favourite effects
A fluffy Eastern Yellow Robins yellow just stands out more

Just the red on a Black Jezebel butterfly stands out

A leaf stuck on a window after a storm looked interesting but more so with selective colour I feel

Red always stands out

But can also be subtle

But is never missed

Green can be quite fluorescent

or just be a hint of colour

Some blues are hello

but also quiet

It’s a hello yellow

or try to find me in the grass

or among the trees

A pink to catch the eye

or to gently cascade

and be small and dainty

or pop out among the others

As Anne said the colours in rust are a favourite

Small and white a discovery

or be a showy presence in the garden

and have a subtle blend

with pastels and strong green to stand out

and a mix of colours that attract the eye

or add colour to a dull day

But a riot of colours that make you look more than once is always a favourite

Well that was a bit of a long post but I hope you enjoyed a bit of the colours in my life or actually in bushboys world
Oh my, this post is great! Your response to this challenge is amazing!!

Thank you very much Susan. I did want to keep going but it was getting to big and I get turned off by long posts so I guess others do too. 🙂

Long photo posts don’t bother me in the slightest. It’s a nice break from non-stop words 🤩 My problem was that I couldn’t keep track of all my favourites. 🤗

I have the same problem with others posts, having to scroll back and forth to remember favourites 🤪
