Capturing Color Through Travel Photos

There’s been a photo meme circulating around the blogosphere and never one to ignore a photo challenge, I decided to join in the fun. Below are my favorite photos that reflect the following colors: Blue, Green, Yellow, White and Red.

So without further ado, here are my favorite colorful travel photos

Canadian sled dog

BLUE – Lake Louise, Canada

Her eyes stopped me dead in my tracks. Amos’ clear blue eyes were like glacial pools and revealed her strength, intelligence and yes even her capacity to love. I’ll never forget the day I met that very special sled dog.

 

Galapagos tortoise

GREEN – Galapagos, Ecuador

It was feeding time and these two giant tortoises were fighting over some leaves, an unlikely argument to say the least. It was this moment though that defined for me personally the beauty and majesty of the islands, the world’s most improbable animal sanctuary.

 

St. Kitts

YELLOW – St. Kitts

As I was walking through a field I noticed this run down building with a stray dog relaxing in front. He’s licking his lips, almost in anticipation of a cold Carib Lager

 

Kingmik Dogsled

WHITE – Dog sledding in Alberta, Canada

The sled tour was almost over when we entered the forest, trees racing by at a fierce clip. Then, almost as suddenly as we entered the grove we erupted into an empty field of sparkling virgin snow. It was one of the few times when an experience took my breath away because of its beauty and wonder.

 

RED – Petra, Jordan

I ran into these Bedouin soldiers while hiking through Petra and asked if they’d pose for a portrait. Instead of smiles and laughs, they stood there stoically as I snapped away, exemplifying the seriousness of their jobs.

 

I hope you enjoyed my favorite colorful photos. Now it’s time for me to nominate some other bloggers to participate in the contest.
