Sunday Stills, the next challenge: Yellow

I find yellow a challenge to photograph, mostly my yellows are  flowers. These are from my archives,  as yellow is not available in the nature at this time. Here are few OK  shots, in my humble opinion, at least they are yellow.

One Word Photo Challenge: Red

I usually do not remember flower names, but this on is Rock and Roll, the name stood out as slightly different, so it stuck on my mind. This red light below is so beautiful so I posted that also…as a sidekick.

Sunday Stills, the next challenge: The Colour Brown

This is the season color,  as after winter everything is brown, the grass, the trees,  even these leaf buds are brown. Logs on the ground – brown is the color – but the shades are so lovely.

Here is southern Finland the spring is very early, like a month ahead. Today it was +9 C and I took a walk in the woods, loved seeing the sun coming between the trees. Beautiful shadows and love  details to see…this does good to the soul.
