It’s Friday! This week’s theme is colour and if you are a parent, you probably have a lot of colour in your home. Toys, books, art supplies… most things related to children are so full of colour.
This week, I wanted to photograph something that had many colours and I was drawn to these well-loved crayons. The crayons make scribbles, lines, and all sorts of artwork. These crayon creations are given as gifts, posted on the fridge, and sometimes I find them in the most unexpected places (especially when paper wasn’t the medium of choice).
There is something about colour, especially when there is lots of it, that gives you happiness. Even when the colour is from something as simple as crayons.
Next, travel with me to visit the amazing and talented Chicago Photographer, Angie Papalas and find out her interpretation of this week’s theme.
I know it’s a bit silly and I’m meant to comment on the colour but I love the little fuzzies you can see on the paper
I too love crayons. But I certainly love your view on them. Just look at the detail in the crayon and in the paper. Awesome shot.
Oh yeah! Awesome. Gotta be a macro!?
Oh Jenn..every week, I LOVE you photo, but this one may be favorite. I LOVE it!
Wow, love the detail in this.
Love, love this! My youngest loves to color so I’m always admiring all the crayons in the box!
Awesome macro!
this is gorgeous, i love the macro here and your perspective!
I didn’t know that crayons had so much detail, and I have them all over my house! 😉 Great work! Very nice job with the color theme!
Great shot! Love the color, processing and comp. Awesome!!!
I love the detail in this photo!
Awesome shot! Me too was thinking of crayons when you think of colors. A+ 🙂
oh I love that you got the texture of the paper on the crayon!
love this shot! its perfect for the theme and i love all the texture you captured.
they certainly make me happy, especially the way you shot them, they look well loved 🙂 and great colorful bokeh <3
I also love the way created such a different point of view on such a commonly seen subject. The colors are of course fantastic but the texture of the paper and the smooth used texture of the crayon is just beautiful!
