Weekly Challenge #73: Color on Color

I'm hoping this theme will not end up being too restristive. What I am looking for is for the primary subject to be similar in color to the background. I think this subject has great possibilities for macro's, landscapes and candids. This challenge is for color images only, no B&W or dual tones.

Good luck with the contest!


Please submit entries until midnight EST on Friday, October 10, 2008.

Example posted in reply, some assembly required, batteries not included.

Thanks for the compliment, Susan. I like the angle of your shot.

The title speaks for itself.

I just posted this shot in response to a question about low-cost macro, and
I realized it fits the "color on color theme! Taken with 50/1.7 on a macro bellows

some really impressive shots entered in this weeks challenge!

I like this shot because not only does she blend in with the rocks

the birds on her shirt are like an inverse reflection of the sky, as if there are birds actualy flying over.

I fogot about this picture and it flashed on my screen saver. I think it fits this theme.
