I thought it might lace a little bit of the theme through my 365. So the plan is to take the month's colour on board and see if I can snap as many {interesting} shots of said colour for my daily shot. Obviously it might be a bit of overkill if EVERY image in a month was the same colour, and a little bit forced I think, so I am going for bursts of the same colour in a month.
But if you too want to join the party late, here are the colours for 2011;
This month is Yellow, which as easter approaches and daffodils appear is a super easy colour to find, but I have noticed that the more I have looked for it, the more I see that colour, from a man on a bright yellow bike yesterday to the lipbalm I have had for months and not taken notice of.2011 Color Stories
January | Wool
The grays and creams of the first month of the year. The weather is making this one easy, as you can see.February | Scarlet
Reds of all sorts seemed like a good fit for a month most often associated with romance.March | Daffodil
The first flower of the year usually pokes its yellow head out of the ground this month, although I can’t imagine anything yellow with all this cold we are having.April | Grass
Surely it will be warm by April. I hope to see plenty of greenery and at least one picnic. Also, if green would like to appear in the shape of money, I would have no objections.May | Jacaranda
California’s famous(ish) Jacaranda season is starting up. I expect purples, lavenders, and everything in between.June | Peacock
Pretty blues to mark the beginning of summer.July | Silver
Ray Bans, men’s watches, and casual jewelry against a California tan.August | Cotton
School starts again. Pressed oxford shirts, fresh paper, and the bright white of new shoelaces.September | Russet
Here come the orangey reds of fall…but not in California. This is our hottest month of the year. The only thing orangey-red around here will be the sun, which will feel like it’s suspended 3 inches from our noses.October | Cauldron
Halloween! Ghouls, ghosts, and the beginning of early nights lend to a month shrouded in black.November | Cider
Topaz, caramel, and the brown of loamy earth. Maybe? Here’s hoping. It’s California, after all.December | Gold
Our church uses gold and green Christmas decorations. It is always so beautiful, and this year only compounded my obsession for brass and gold
Oooh I like it ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm a February baby and love RED!!
I even tried red lipstick today! Go figure!
I like the colour idea!
Lots of love

What a neat idea. I have to remember to look for this in 2012 so I can start from the beginning.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to take a picture of something beautiful everday for Lent so I'll try to include some colours too :)
