I have been thinking and thinking about a new topic but either my mind is blank or whatever I thought about was too recent of a challenge theme to pick again so soon.

Using my username as inpiration,


This weeks challenge is.......

BLUE



It can be a photograph of anything at all, as long as the colour blue is somewhere in it.


Have fun and good luck everyone! biggrin.gif

The Rules:
One photo per person which has been taken this week (starting TUESDAY). Everyone is welcome to join in. Competition will start Tuesday with submissions ending the following Monday.

If you wish, please note your rating after your image:
Rating 1 Beginner (just got my camera)
Rating 2 Amateur (learning about settings)
Rating 3 Hobbyist (have a good grasp of the theory)
Rating 4 Semi Pro (improved well beyond when I started)
Rating 5 Pro/serious hobbyist (I'm well experienced and have been doing this for quite a while)

Congrats on the win - it was a fantastic shot!

My favourite colour is blue too, closely followed by green!

Have no idea what to do yet though...

Love that shot Mummy26!

And I love your photobomber Peanut, too cute!

This probably won't be my entry but it's a little something I took today while playing in the pool with my nephew and thought there was plenty of blue in it. I have other ideas for what I want to enter but this will make an ok back-up if this weekend goes down the drain and I don't get to take another photo.
