Spectrum - an open thread

[JohnFar]

This idea came as I looked through old photos and realised that some were almost monochromatic, just full of a single colour. So it's possible to create a spectrum - red, orange, yellow, green, blue and indigo/violet (and purple? too tricky to be fussy here). I'll post a 'red' picture, then has anyone got an orange, then a yellow, etc, until we start again at red? The only criterion - most of the picture should be that colour, not just a highlight (unless we get desperate). Although I do landscape, no constraints on genre - clothing, flowers, buildings, anything. Any takers?

Great idea. I knew there was a reason I added colour keywords on some of my images. Now I get to do them!

Orange:

Is this enough yellow or should I crop out more of the surrounding area?

Does this count as enough blue?

Hopefully enough blue...

Cross posted - I was cropping mine tighter!!!

Could this be indigo?

Probably! Just been looking at Wiki's page on Indigo and it's rather vague!!!

Indigo/violet/purple is a minefield for real world colour, so I tend to lump them together (or I'm just colour-blind in that bit of the spectrum). So back to red....

I'll start with an IR shot then! The red/orange line behind the cat shows why she used to love lying just outside the bathroom door!!!

Chipped out of a water filled ditch and just missed a birdie 2. Made the putt for my par though (and for some reason, the SI means I get 2 shots on this hole...)
