Weekly Challenge #604 - Color My World
Posted By: atupdate, 02-13-2023, 06:06 AM

I'm looking for images where color acts as a secondary/supportive subject. Something where your main subject is the first thing your eye takes in but then you start to see that color plays almost or the same amount of importance as the main subject. I like to be surprised.

This challenge will close on 20FEB23 at the same time as this posting.

The fine print:

Every week, a new theme is picked and judged by the winner of the previous week.

Rules:
1. Post ONE photo.
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread and explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme (especially if it's not obvious).
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and choose one of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus an additional day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax camera can be used.
8. Pictures can be from any time frame, not just within the week of the current theme.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge for the next challenge, they will PM the #2 winner for that person to be the judge.

Examples:









Good luck to all.

Tim

My camera was set to freeze the high-speed wing movement but I was able to snatch this one during the few seconds it alighted and the angle of light showed the iridescence well.

Nice challenge and I hope my photo lives up to your expectations. It’s a little daffodil that is popping up after our (not so harsh) winter and finally bringing some color back into the outside world.

Well since it's Valentines I think I can jump in with this one, a red flower and a couple in the background.

Oh, Danny Boy...

The pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side.

The wife, the wife is calling
From pub to pub, she says you're out to late.
So get on home, you better quit your stalling
It's you that thought that marriage would be great.
