A Bit Late - But Still In Time...

Last week, Xanthe and Andrea have started a collaboration about colours - such a great idea, as I'm clearly in need for some colours right now; these grey and foggy days seem to go on forever.

I missed last week's colour red, because I didn't find anything red to take pictures of… needless to say there are plenty of red things in my household, which I keep seeing, now that the colour yellow is asked for. 

But yellow is really difficult - nothing yellow in my home (or so I think…), as it isn't one of my favourite colours, unless flowers are involved, of course. And so it's quite serendipitous I discovered this beautiful yellow buttercup this week:

yellow flower buttercup textured
processed with Kim's textures "havana" and "celery"

Before I'll hop over to visit everyone at Texture Tuesday and celebrate Kim's return home, I'm off to the dentist's (once again…) - wish me luck!

Speaking of which (wishing luck that is, not the dentist): no news on my lens yet... I took the photo above with my macro.

Have a wonderful and colourful week everyone!

    It's just beautiful, Rosie, and definitely a much needed shot of color on a very cold gray day here. xo.

    So pretty. Love that bright yellow cheering up what is a very grey day in the UK. Hope the dentist is OK and keeping my fingers crossed for your lens too. :)

    This is absolutely beautiful! From the texture to the colors to the composition. I can never get yellow quite right with my camera. Reds I have no problem with as many others seem to complain about, but yellow is a challenge for me. Not for you, apparently! :)

    Yellow is tricky. You have done a beautiful job with it!

    Beautiful work, Rosie! So soft and dreamy. I don't like yellow much either, but this is lovely.
    Hope your lens is okay.

    Yes, yellow isn't one of my favourites either, but it is quite cheery :)
    This buttercup is beautiful.

    I love this yellow, I didn't realise you could play along with Xanthe's colours, what a great thing to do. Hope the dentist is ok and thanks for your lovely messages, I really appreciate them.

    Beautiful work Rosie. I love the texture you used. Here all I see is colour and long for colourless winter scenes!

    I don't know the details of the dentist but I know how I hate to go and hope it was uneventful. Love the color, and composition. The texture is beautiful, Happy weekend.
