Egídio takes the lead this week with an invitation to have fun juxtaposing the three primary colors; Red, Blue & Yellow with their complementary colors – hues on the opposite side of the color wheel. When our senses need a pick-me-up, these bright combinations come to the rescue!
Blue and Orange create a fierce dynamic on Yun Hsiang, a dragon carousel feature which was in its last phases of production when I snapped this photo. By now it is one of the rides available to visitors of the Albany Historic Carousel and Museum, Albany, Oregon. Brilliant autumn leaves silhouetted upon a bright blue sky always takes my breath away!
Where else would you find a Chinook salmon in a Carousel?! Albany, OR is only 90 miles (144 km) from the north Pacific Ocean where Chinook are native to the ocean and the river systems of western North America. Red blossoms of Major Wheeler Honeysuckle on the vine, and ripe raspberries resting upon green foliage present a vivid statement in my gardens. Red and Green are a happy pairing!
Purple and Yellow. Another match made of light! Above my sister Lori holds her grandson Micah, while her daughter Molly stands beside her at Long Beach, WA. It was 2017. We were initiating young Micah to the wonder of cold ocean water, fresh clean breezes and unconditional love.

You been very creative for the brief
Thanks for stopping by!
Lindy, what a lively post! I loved the color contrasts you brought up. That dragon is eye catching, for sure. The flower choices you picked are also great. Excellent post! Thanks for sharing these photos.
Thank you, Egídio. It’s my pleasure to continue to participate in Lens-Artists challenges!
Always good to see you here, Lindy – and i agree about that aster – glorius colour! Love the carousels and your sister with family too. Young Micah had a good start there!
Thank you, Leya. Micah is now 10 years old and a smart, sweet young person!
Some excellent examples and I couldn’t agree with you more colour is a balm. Favourite has to be your sisters family and your words describing it. Lovely.
Thank you, Sofia. After two weeks of clear skies and cold nights, the sky is clouding over with heavy rain predicted soon. That’s when I turn to photos and paintings for relief!
