Assignment 25 - Color! - Congratulations Neuroanatomist!

**Sheiky** · 09-27-2011, 09:19 PM

On behalf of our previous assignment winner Adrian Mandea: this assignment is all about color!

The idea is that we would like to see images where the color can be a subject by itself, something dramatic and powerful! A specific color, multiple colors, colorfulness, you name it! Good luck!

Here's a small example(a green one) to get the creative flow moving: [url="http://totallycoolpix.com/2011/09/38-shades-of-green/]38 shades of green[/url]

The following finalists have been selected:

Your 38 shades link doesn't appear to be working, but I'll assume it's the same as this page.

**Sheiky** · 09-27-2011, 10:21 PM

It works for me. It is a pop-up though. Can that be the cause? And yes, different website but it's the same as your link. Thanks

**Rocco** · 09-27-2011, 10:29 PM

Works for me as well.

Mmm, interesting topic. So many brightly coloured birds, butterflies, a few years' worth of dutch flowers, and a whole stack of orchids in Singapore Airport to choose from.

But in the end i've settled on this one, I can't go past the subtle different blues offset by the very iridescent-looking jellysquish. Taken at Blijdorp Zoo in Rotterdam (which translates as HappyTown Zoo, how quaint) earlier this year.

50mm f/1.8 ii @ f/1.8, iso200, 1/60s. Not much PP except for RAW conversion, colour saturation even at -1 because it looked too weird at default, and a bit of cloning specs of dust off the glass.

I finally have something I can enter that doesn't get put to shame by all of the great images in these contests!

First one is my entry.

Thanks to a patient daughter, this is my entry

**ddt0725** · 09-29-2011, 02:37 AM

I've decided to make this one my submission instead of the red corvette. Although, this one looks lots better IMO when viewed with flickr's black background ...
