Theme Day: "Yellow"

[click image to enlarge]

The first of the month is synonomous with "Theme Day" in the City Daily Photo community. This month's theme, the color "yellow," eluded me until a couple days ago when this mini school bus, hydrant, walkway, and little alien flag holders, came into view.

I like the way the wet surface seems to enhance the color. Have fun looking and hope you don't get jaundiced in the process.

perfect yellow for the theme day. I am glad you are enjoying the Cactus and Chihuly. I will be doing much more as I like to drop them in every few days.

Ooooooo, the planets all aligned for you in Quincy! Don't you love it when so many elements come together and present themselves to you!? Cool shot.

It's like the 'yellow fairy' touched down there. Fantastic, Slim! And I'm in agreement with you on syrup grade ( :

Sometimes these scenes just jump out at you.

I think it is neat how sometimes you just "stumble upon" that photo you were looking for. Serendipity with all the yellow just in time for theme day. ;)

This is funny and probably we ought to study this alignment in search of something... maybe a laugh! Great shot.

How marvellous - yes each item benefits the others. A good find for today. Love it when we find surprises like this. Super.

It has that triangular shape we photographers love. Photographing over water really does work so well for urban scenes, adds another layer.Very creative image.

That's a cute little bus!

But no yellow theme is complete without Coldplay's song, "Yellow". Search for it in Youtube

Hey just wanted to say. It looks cool on the photo, the way it is here in Georgia April 7th. It is snowing here.

This tiger swallowtail butterfly was a delight to see pollinating the phlox bed along my driveway.
