The primary colours of the new OCMW government department building in Brugge, Belgium.
An interesting fact ;~} This is currently the most interesting photograph tagged with Bruges on the whole of Flickr! Wow and thanks to lthomas for pointing this out to me!
This isn't exactly what I meant when I asked my husband to put the colours out on the line! ;-) lol. Rainbow for February Scavenger Hunt.
Hey everyone! How are you doing? This is a test shot from the camera of Sony Xperia XA1.
Anyway, it's been an incredible year! I had been on a pretty bumpy roller-coaster and it was fun. It was amazing to meet people and talk to them and my favourite part, you get to learn from them things that are life changing and knowing that in the end everything will be alright and you have to carry on with hope. To see the bright side in everything you see and cherish the gift of time you are given.
Have a great weekend! :D
Colour in everyday life is very diverse, from knowing that a fruit is ripe to eat, to understanding how Colour can affect our moods.
What links speed, power, and the color red? Hint: it's not a sports car. It's your muscles. A new study, published in the journal Emotion, finds that when humans see red, their reactions become both faster and more forceful. And people are unaware of the color's intensifying effect.
I found this interesting, don't you? :-)
Twenty one species of Nepenthes have been recorded in Sarawak. They usually grow on poor, acid soils, deficient in nitrogen. They are carnivorous plants which trap insects in the pitchers to provide them with some of their nitrogen needs.
Nepenthes start as rosette plants and mature into tendril climbers. Some of the tendrils bears funnel-shaped pitchers. Different species have pitchers of different shapes and colours. Most of the species are terrestrial while some are epiphytic.
The most spectacular species is N. lowii where the pitcher has a narrow constriction half-way up. N. ampullaria, N. rafflesiana and N. gracilis are found by roadsides while N northiana is endemic to limestone. Other species are confined to swamp forest and montane forest.
Habitat: Locally occasional in peat swamp, kerangas, limestone, mixed dipterocarp forest, submontane and montane forests, from sea level to 2,700m above sea level.
Distribution: Throughout Sarawak but many species are site specific.
Note: Nepenthes are threatened because of their high horticultural value.
LOCATION : CAMERON HIGHLAND, PAHANG.

PHOTOGRAPHERS THOUGHTS …
Contrast is about light, and photography is painting with light …
When the colours of a scene are just not working, look to creating a B&W. So many times, photographing towards to sun destroys the colour, but creates good B&W.
Here was just that situation, and using my 9mm lens for field-of view, allowed me to capture the drama unfolding in the sky. Remember, getting a black and white image to work requires the image to have black & white elements …
