leading colour

By

I love a good colour week, it’s such an inspiration for me, as colour is my passion. So seeking out a certain colour each day gets me excited.

Do you ever find one colour is clearly the starring role in some of your shots?

Please show us what colour is taking the lead in your photos lately.

And as a special celebration of color, we are giving away 3 complimentary class registrations for Tracey Clark’s soon coming photo-centric e-class Picture Color. 30 days of colorful clicks? Oh yes! Talk about some color inspiration!

Leave your comment here between now and Thursday 4/14 midnight (EST) for your chance to win.

  2. I just love Tracy's classes! This class is just what I need to jumpstart into spring 🙂

  3. I prefer lots of bright colors mixed with texture whether they are natural as in spring tulips and daffodils, or bright banners on an old European building.

  8. Oddly, the stairhall at work. It was recently painted a glorious, changeable blue called "watery", from Sherwin Williams. So wonderful, I'm painting my bedroom the same color.

    Sounds like a fun class.

  18. I am really inspired by the color yellow right now! It is so bright and cheery – just what I need when sometimes the winter seems to butt into spring yet!! Your new class looks awesome! Thank you for the chance!!

  29. I'm very much into tulips right now as I wait for the start of the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival. I've been walking around town, going to nurseries, snapping pictures of tulips along the way:

  32. I would so love to win this spot in Tracey's class! Thanks for the chance. When it comes to color, I find that I am attracted to warm tones. I would upload an image, but my laptop crashed the other night and I lost most everything!!!!!!!!! Please learn from my mistake and back up those precious images of yours!!!

  33. I love to get pics of sunrises and sunsets. Fiery colors such as red, orange, pinks and purples.

  35. I'm really just a beginner at photography…but I'm trying to learn as much as I can. I love the color RED.

  43. I find that reds, pinks, oranges and greens all show up a lot in my photos. And everywhere else in my work, too. I am really drawn to all of those, although I think reds often take the lead.

    I'm so excited for Tracey's class, too. I just love color! I'm planning to sign up, although now I think I'll wait a bit, just in case I win a registration. 😉

  48. I'll have to pay closer attention to see if one color is drawing my attention right now. Lately I think it's green just because everything is starting to bloom.

  51. The photo was beautiful. I really like red, and I just happen to like old bicycles too!! Thanks for the opportunity; Ive read that her classes are inspirational and great fun.

  56. I'm in the Picture Inspiration class and am so enjoying it and learning from the others. My first class was Picture Winter. It changed how I see things and take pictures.

    It's my birthday tomorrow April 14, but today I celebrate the last day of 56. It's been a wonderful year and I look forward to 57 – a really good sounding number and age. Maybe Picture Color would be a nice birthday gift? 🙂

  60. I am looking forward to Tracey's class Picture Color – her clases are inspiring.
    Thanks

  65. That happens to me all the time! Because SoCal has gotten so much rain this season the dominant color seems to be green lately. 🙂 Would love a spot in Tracey's class!!

    I don't normally go for pink. I think I have been a bit of a tomboy for a lot of my life and only in recent years am I embracing my romantic side. I think I often thought pink was too girly and thought of Barbie dolls, but now I realise there are so many variations of tone that suit me and aren't too sort of plasticcy. Saying that, I do love this bright magnolia in all it's pink beauty.

    I think spring, and being surrounded by new babies and expectant mothers is making me think of delicate, fresh life.

  70. I don't know that I shoot any particular color more than any other one. I'm just happy to have things of color to shoot now that spring has arrived. White, black, and gray were getting a bit tiring during our long, snowy winter. 🙂

  77. I love the inspiration and emotion conveyed in photos that exude or surprise with a particular color. Living in the mountains, it's a challenge to find color standouts during seasons other than spring. I'm excited about the possibility of participating in the upcoming color class; now that would be inspiring! Thanks for all you do for women and the photography community!

  78. Reds, purples, oranges are a few of my fav's. I would LOVE to win this, I so need any extra helpI can get. Thanks for the chance!!

  87. I could totally use a class to focus on color. Things have been so drab around here lately. However, I am thinking they will be looking colorful soonwith all of the blooms making their way out!!! Thanks for the generous give-away & happy spring!

  89. with a new little one due any day, i think that a class would be just the thing to keep me grounded on all those tired days! 🙂
