Photo Assignment: Flirt with colours

[Tom McNikon]

Go out and find many combinations of colours and flirt with them in many ways like I did with brown wall and concrete in a blue sea with a low sun shining

Oh, awesome, thanks for this new thread Tom... this could get really interesting.

Y'all have seen it before, I know...but I had fun playing with straws...

[ombugge]

What are we, or should we be, seeing here????

[wherrygirl]

Here's the original, Ombugge:

Good heavens.... What did you think it was then Ralf, a 'roo caught in a willy-willy as we were?

Ivy! – It’s like an oil-painting; I can almost convince myself I can see the brush strokes.

I guess this could be categorized as a proper "flirt with colors"?

A little splash of color from a Venice street market.

A nice thread this one...!

Here's "Viking Queen" last fall, mirroring herself in the narrow canal between the quay and city street


And her superstructure would look something like this

I had almost forgotten about this thread, but since it now has popped back up again, I must venture to see if I can have a flirt as well...

[PoloUK]

Hmm - well, being a happily married man, I know little of flirting - but having seen the photos above, these images seem relevant.

Firstly a variation on Sterkoder's 'hull reflection' photos - a barge in a shipyard near Groningen was catching the light on the ripples of the canal.



Also man-made, a pile of fishing gear on the harbour-side in Whitstable, Kent - not very interesting, but the colours were.



But of course colours abound in nature. One little bit of South Wales beach, millions of shades.



And finally - nature's own version of abstract. Stunning double rainbows over the houses here in Chippenham.



Thanks for re-enlivening this thread Jan Olav - it's a good one!

Actually, it was Dane who bumped up this thread again.

Similar to my previous peppers photo but this one is the screen background on my computer.
