Sunday Stills - Tri Color

I must not be a very colorful person. More of a 'deep greens and blues' in a subtle sort of way...



Technically there is a red gate and a yellow wagon wheel in this picture, but you'll need to click to biggify to prove it.



An old gas pump down Ky Hwy 32. If I'd been able to catch this with the sun coming up, rather than setting behind it, the colors would have been more vibrant.



A beautiful porch just up the way. Not a ton of color, but I like what's there.



And a house I've never noticed before - with green eaves. If the sky had been blue...well, it still wouldn't have exactly met Ed's challenge.

For more colorful Sunday Stills...

Hi Sara, nice to know someone else was challenged like I was. :) Ed does challenge us! I still enjoyed your pictures. A nice white lamb would have added more contrast. :):)

I love the old gas pump. Also, it's a very nice porch and rocker photo.

These are just breath taking....so peaceful and lovely. Thanks!

You've chosen a peaceful way to meet the challenge. Tri-color doesn't have to be vibrant or neon and have shock value. You did an impressive job framing these sites. I like them all.

IThe gas pump is great.
You just live in a place of peaceful colour rather than riotous colour.

Ed said...

Nice shots, I agree with dibear, a little keebler or grahm would have been cool.. :-)

OH I love the gas pump! That is totally amazing.

Steffie said...

Absolutely lovely. The porch is my favorite. I too have a preference for more subtle colours. Nevertheless this was a good challenge, because it made us more aware of the colours around us.

This was a bit of a tricky one. You did such a wonderful job of finding gorgeous tri color images. Sure love the gas pump. My favorite is of the wonderful porch - I want to grab a good book and rock away the afternoon.

Aw, I think somebody was watching you from the window of the photo with the gas pump!

I like the first one with the yellow wagon wheel.

I was challenged also, I think like you, in colors of the earth and sky. You did great! I found your photos very peaceful..and pleasant..maybe I am just old and too much color does something to my brain! :)
