ablazed with color

Color is everywhere! Have you noticed? Have you captured it through your lens? My guess is you have. It's that time of year after all when the world is waking from the last few months of cool slumber.

In honor of the season and all things colorful, we are giving away 2 complimentary class registrations to Picture Color. Leave a comment here between now and Friday, 5/27 at midnight EST to be entered in a random drawing. And for another chance to win, visit Mortal Muses. Those girls rock! Oh, and the gals at Write.Click.Scrapbook? Yep, they are awesome too and are giving away some Picture Color spots in the next few days so head over there too! See what I mean? Color IS everywhere!

And with that in mind, let us celebrate the coming colors together. Show us blazing, beautiful color today!

I'm definitely loving all the beautiful colors these days! I was in Tahoe for the weekend and loved seeing that Winter is finally bowing out and letting Spring have center stage. So much green!! http://bigmariolife.blogspot.com/2011/05/weekend-in-tahoe-and-week-18-photo.html

I would love to get a chance to take this class! And if I don't win, I may just sign up anyway. I need some inspiration-I can't remember the last time I picked up my camera! Too much on my plate right now. But I need that escape!

Photography never ceases to amaze me. This shot illustrates the opportunities we have to capture nature's most subtle and delicate details. I love how photography has taught me to slow down and soak in my environment versus rushing through my day to check off my "to do" list. This photo also reminds me of how much I have yet to learn--yikes! Thanks for sharing and for the inspiration!!
