Searching for Roy G Biv III: Orange Update #7

Ferry Building farmers' market

Outside my window there's plenty of white and brown but not much in the ORANGE department so this month's search for ORANGE had me looking through the photo archives...and reminiscing...

San Francisco ORANGE

Ferry Building farmers' market
Stained glass window in the Basilica next to Mission Dolores (of Vertigo fame)

Savannah ORANGE

  1. Some very interesting oranges - like those tomatoes - they are tomatoes? never seen stripy ones before and I like the texture of orange on your friend Laura's gelatin print.
    I'm playing along and I have some oranges on my blog.

  4. I've joined in again this month and there are oranges over on my blog. I'm away now for a couple of days and may not be able to search out all those other oranges till I return - definitely a pleasure to look forward to ...

  5. Humorous oranges, huh? Which brought a chuckle - surely not the ferocious rusty hog? Or was it the finely crafted yarn tiger? I love that we both culled thru our photos for this month's color. There may be some orange berries on a bush outside, but I'd have to wade thru the snow to find them...and that's just not happening today.

    Happy Thursday!
