You Capture – Color

January 28, 2010 by Elaine

This week’s You Capture feature is COLOR and Beth said we get extra credit if it’s found outside and well, I used to LOVE extra credit when I was in school, so I found some (easy to do with the continued Camellias blooming!)

Here’s my COLOR for the week…

I love the contrasts of the bright pink flower on the winter grass.
Colorful coloring – do I get more extra credit for that?? 😉

Love the rainbow of The B Man’s bubble gum machine

And Baby K’s bouncer toy (BONUS: cute baby face!)

And this would be the traffic light that I sit at for about 2 minutes every week day of my life after picking The B Man up from school (well, except for holidays of course…).

    Wow, that flower is just gorgeous! And also hard for me to imagine given that we are knee deep in winter.

    That intersection has a whole lot of traffic lights! Crazy!
