searching for ROYGBIV: yellow

"How wonderful yellow is. It stands for the sun." -Vincent Van Gogh

Today's the day to post yellow for the search for ROYGBIV, and I have less than 3 hours, but I made it.

Sun rising on Backbone Mountain, MD #makeadventure
the soft, but powerful yellow of the rising sun on Backbone Mountain in western Maryland

Yellow butterfly

Yellow and rust

rusted and scraped yellow spied in an alley

Noah became a yellow belt earlier this month
my son tested for his yellow belt earlier this month


Thank you Jennifer for this fun way of noticing the colorful world around us everyday!

  2. Wonderful yellows! Was the foccacia as good as it looks? The scent of freshly baked bread seems to be wafting thru the air.....

  4. Love your nature photos. And congrats to your son on earning a yellow belt. By chance can he come up with a green belt for next month? ( grin, just being silly) Nice collection of photos, enjoyed them very much.

  5. What pretty, soft yellows - and a strong finish with the yellow belt (how exciting!). I am envious of your ability to bake such a bella foccacia - it looks very authentic/tasty!

    1. Thanks Sharmon. He just started karate back in December and it's been so great watching him grow with it.
