Click-a-Pic Challenge #12 "Fill the Frame"

[shutterspeed]

Remember the “red” challenge? Well it's time for another color challenge. But this time I want you to take photos of a color and fill the frame of the photograph with that color. The entire photo needs to contain an image solely of yellow, green, blue, etc. The photo needs to be predominately 1 color. Pick whatever color you want, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF RED (we've already done that!) :) and fill the frame. Let's see a rainbow of color in the gallery this week!! :D

If you have any questions please feel free to post them or email me. I'm here to help.

You have from*Friday Sept 11th*to*Thursday Sept 17th*to shoot your photos for this theme. Please submit only photos taken during that time frame. Below are some examples to get the creative juices flowing. Good luck and I look forward to seeing everyones photos!

Where do you get all those fantastic challenge ideas! I love this one too!

[shutterspeed]

well i'm not a genius! :teehee: some i've recycled from a Flickr group i use to be a part of that would do the same thing. and some have been original ideas.

i have a list i've made up that i'm working from. however, i'm totally willing to take suggestions if anyone has any they wish to share! :)

[RhiG122]

oooo this gives me an excuse to take more pics of my flowers again! i have so many of them in bloom right now from all of the recent rain we FINALLY got!

hey sarah, do you have a macro challenge on that list somewhere or the inanimate object one?

[MissMint]

COOOOL!!!! What is that blue thing?

as a matter of fact i do. :) those will be coming soon!

What is that blue thing?
my kids have one of those electric lamp things you touch and the "electric" bolts follows your fingers all over the ball. it's blue and is really cool all lit up! :)

[Scrappie Irene]

We had beautiful weather here yesterday. But I remember the sunrise photo challenge of some weeks ago. We had rain and clouds everyday in that week.
But don't you have anything inside your house that you can use for this week?

[RhiG122]

But don't you have anything inside your house that you can use for this week?

i experimented with some of the decore in gracyns bedroom....i posted them on my flickr as they really just dont 'fill the frame'.

thankfully the rain seems to be letting up finally but i tried something with the hubs and munchkin for the fox nfl opener!

[retrohipmama]

So this is officially my first post. Hope I did it right.
I just finished decorating my very own scrap space and this shot reflects the color scheme. Hope you like it!
