Capture The Colour....

Travel supermarket have a photo competition at the moment entitled "Capture The Colour" - so here's my entry!
The five colours are white, green, yellow, blue and red, and the photos should demonstrate these colours - there are loads of good (and very professional) entries so far, and as I'm very much someone who takes photos for fun and to capture family life, I doubt I'll win - but the winners of each colour category get an ipad, and the overall winner £2000 to spend on travel, so it's worth a go!

White:

This photo was taken from our chalet bedroom whilst on holiday in Austria earlier this year, soon after sunrise. There had been loads of fresh snow, but the day dawned bright, and I was so excited as I looked out of the window and saw all the fresh powder...I couldn't wait to get out skiing!

Green:

This photo was actually taken more than 10 years ago on our honeymoon in South Africa - and I had to scan it into my computer, as it was taken on good old fashioned film! I love this photo of a cheetar, gazing at me through the surprisingly green undergrowth. it was taken with a zoom lens, though if I'm being honest, it was not a completely wild cheetar, as the photo was taken in a compound....

Yellow:

This photo was taken in Southwold, in Suffolk, one of our favourite holiday spots (see previous posts!). This beach hut nestles cheekily amongst other tasteful, pastel painted, maritime coloured huts - a shout-out to individuality, painted dark brown and bright yellow, and appropriately named "Go Bananas"!
Of course the typical British storm clouds in the background just add to the atmosphere...


Blue:

Of course I had to have a sunset photo in somewhere, and this is the lovely St Vincent and the Grenadines, with a fishing boat floating serenely on an ink blue sea, and silhouetted against a multi-coloured sky. A peaceful and relaxing photo!

Red:

This colour was a little more challenging, but in the end I decided on this photo - a trip to Wembley to see our beloved "Reds", York City, get promoted back into the football league! The photo just shows our happiness and relief at finally returning to the league - a wonderful day!

As part of the cometition I have to link to 5 other bloggers - this could be tricky as I don't actually know any other bloggers! Still, there are a few that I follow, so I'll add some links...
