strong

Weekly Photo Challenge : Colour

How do you like your colour- strong or weak?

I find that I have a distinct preference for the pastel and washed out tones.

The non-colour of the sea

The non-colour of the sea late in the day

Even better when the wind is whipping it?

Even better when the wind is whipping it?

Or with a hint of colour as the fog rolls in

Or with a hint of colour as the fog rolls in

The whitening of snow changes everything.

Our garden this Winter

Our garden this Winter

And blots out all the colour from the landscape

And blots out all the colour from the landscape

And glints through the leaves in Autumn

Uplifting lemon colours the leaves in Autumn

Old gold plays on Medieval architecture

Old gold haunts Medieval architecture

The brazen face of the sunflower

The sunflower shows its bold face

Mingling with the friendly oranges

Lemons mingling with friendly oranges

Voluptuous in their display

And what about this voluptuous display!

Hotter still the hibiscus

Hotter still, the hibiscus

Flirting with the green in the greenhouse

Flirting with colour in the greenhouse

 
 
Teasing the blue

Teasing the blue

Ah, those blues!  Who could forget Porto?

Everywhere in the cathedral

It was everywhere in the cathedral

All the way to the spectacular, and midnight.

All the way to the spectacular, and midnight in Durham.

And it wouldn't be complete without my favourite bridge, and we're back with the subtle colour.

But it wouldn’t be complete without my favourite bridge.

And the subtle colours that I love

And those subtle colours that I love

Like sunshine on the water

Like sunshine on the water

I think that’s it!  The full spectrum of colours for me.  Which would you choose?
