A time to share { Color w/ Emotion }

Without having been out with my camera yet, I went through my archives and found so many good shots to use for this week's prompt. Here's an example:



This sky. This beautiful sky and sunset took my breath away last summer. The day was clear, bright, and sunny but we had been hearing something about a thunderstorm was on its way. It almost feels like the storm waited for the sun to set before it rolled in - and in the moment that I snapped this shot, I felt like darkness and light were warring it out right in front of me. I couldn't help but to stand there and watch how it unfolded. I can't remember ever seeing something like it.

Gorgeous stormy sunset capture! Wow! Very very cool!

Now, in answer to your questions:

When has color stirred something in you?

Soft pastels, usually blues, aquas, different hues of lavender, soft beiges, creamy whites, always stir emotion within me. To me, these colors bring a certain kind of calm - I instantly feel more relaxed, and they evoke a feeling of summertime within - which always makes me feel good.

Which room in your house lights you up when you enter it?

My older sons bedroom. The walls are painted a soft hue of blue, and also beige. So lovely.

What color makes you happy when you wear it?

Lavender. :)

When has color stirred something in you? The sky often stirs deep emotion in me- almost every variation in color moves me.

Which room in your house lights you up when you enter it? My spare bedroom- it has a phlox blue paint color and splashes of red.

What color makes you happy when you wear it? All ranges of purple - and strangely gray has been one of my favorites-not sure it makes me happy though...now wondering why I am drawn to it then :) LOL.
