orange - inspiration avenue weekly challenge

This weeks "weekly challenge" in Inspiration Avenue was "orange". So here i was a little stuck for a while, i mean whilst many would think Halloween with this i don't, being British & all. Orange to me is bright & bold, it reminds me of summer, my second cat Sandy (if you hadn't already guessed he was one big ass ginger tom) & one of my favourite t-shirts. (if you want one check out Palmer Cash ... they are awesome, & i really cannot begin to describe how much i love to shop with them!!)

So i went back through my work to see what i already had, & nothing was really orange, or stood out to me. I mean i had some stuff i took out & about but nothing that screamed orange.
September is here but Autumn isn't appearing & as i said I'm not such a fan of Halloween, although i might still go out & buy a pumpkin for some photographic fun. & so i went literal ... i went an actual orange. Started photographing that on a bright red chopping board & then remembered i had some orange paper so ended up with the orange on orange paper & well I'm not sure you can get more "orange" than that. Although in taking the shots this isn't the one i thought I'd end up with but then that's half the fun of editing ... isn't it?

So anyways here's my submission for this weeks photo challenge ... hope you like it. & you have until Sunday to get your entry in ... have fun people!

  6. I'm loving the crates pic. The colors are so pretty--love that bit of bright pink, too! How funny that such odd items to photograph turn out so pretty when you do take that pic!
