Keep it Alive: What do you see #167
Here are the Rules
This is Sadie’s photo to do your thing –
Come they said
we’re on our way
on to greatness
a place to stay
Moving on past
all none the same
but in pairs
down they came
Come on they said
get off that stump
you can’t stay there
OK, now jump
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
The Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #161: Feet and Shoes
An underrated song from the 60’s which still has relevance today. Please enjoy
“Well, I may be common people
But I’m your brother
And when you strike out
You’re trying to hurt me
It’s hurting you”
Becky’s Square Photo Challenge July: Square Tree
I was reminded of shoe lasts that my bestie owns by Becky and her post about Mr B’s Tree
Your tree song for today
These old wooden shoe shapes were used by shoemakers to mould and shape shoes. There are two sizes. The smaller ones could be childs shoes or perhaps a small woman. The other larger one has a name on the side of the person the shoes were being made for so the shoemaker didn’t have to measure each time.
I also found some small wooden shoes that my girls grandmother bought back for them on her overseas trips years ago plus a pair of little clogs from a tourist place, The Clog Barn, in Coffs Harbour.
This months square challenge from Becky: Blue
The theme for July is ‘blue‘, and as always it is totally up to you how you interpret the square theme but whatever you decide to do, please remember there is a rule if you want to part of the Square Gang and be sure your photos are square so you can make it into the gallery.
