Looking through my photos, it seems I have a lot of orange, from sunsets to flowers to buildings, and I have so many more wonderful photos with that little bit of orange that catches the eye, and brightens up the scene.

For today’s challenge we are asked to show a pop of colour in an otherwise dull landscape, and while looking through my photos taken over the past few days I came across this perfect photo.   I was visiting my grandchildren over the weekend, and my 5 and three quarters year old grand-daughter  (the three quarters is very important) ‘borrowed’ my camera to take some shots of her Barbie, and the results are indeed very  colourful – Barbie outside (as shown), doing the laundry, putting on make up, making dinner etc.,so thank you Caitlin for helping me out today with my homework!

Colourful Kinsale
Many towns in Ireland like to paint their houses and shops in vibrant colours, as you can see from this shop called ‘Stone Mad’ selling beautiful jewellery and knick knacks in Kinsale. Â The pink window frames, rainbow colours and the hanging baskets add to the vibrancy and make people stop and have a look.
This huge mural stands behind one of the altars at Chichester Cathedral, it is the Piper Tapestry which was woven in France in 1966, designed by John Piper who also made stained glass windows for several churches.
Chichester Cathedral
This magnificent stained glass window is also in Chichester Cathedral, and has been there since the 14th century, and the colours are so vibrant, considering that it has survived many centuries.
