Pacific Blue Link up and Wk 17 Color Reveal

Hey all you color hunters! Sorry for not posting the link up yesterday, I thought Project 64 needed a day off in honor of the Easter Holiday. Just a little side note, I try to let everyone know if a post will be delayed or late on our Facebook page, so make sure you like our page!

So that means today we will have a day full of color...Our favorite from the magenta link up, the new link up for pacific blue and the reveal of our new color!

Are you all ready to get started! Magenta was kind of fun, it was  nice to see such a bright cheery color, especially since it's been raining for about a week in my nic of the woods, although very grateful for the rain, it was much needed, just a little dreary and makes me very sleepy! Our favorite out of your magenta submissions come from Scott over at My Photo Adventures, we thought it was a unique interpretation of magenta and a nice find as well! Make sure you visit and give some love! Congrats Scott and thanks for playing along here at Project 64!

We really do enjoy seeing everyone's take on the week's color! Keep spreading the word and keep linking up! The more the merrier on this colorful journey! Today also means we are taking another color out of our box and can you believe we are now a quarter of the way though our box of 64 crayons! This week we are officially pulling crayons out of the second sleeve of colors! This week my wonderful hubby selected the beautiful color of RED VIOLET, not to be confused with violet red! As we journey through the box it is crazy how many different shades there are and at times seems a little tedious when matching the colors, but remember to just have fun and get as close as you can!

Since we've been rained in I found my red violet in my boys' toy box. One of them received it as a birthday gift, its a simple toy, no bells or whistles, but they both like it. A little reminder that kids today still like the simple things...it also reminds me of being a kid and the long waits at the doctors office, funny how different objects hold different memories!

I went with how the color looks on paper verses the color of the crayon, when I held them next to each other they were pretty close! As you know, each week I try to add a little extra challenge...well this week I thought I'd something a little different! I thought it might be fun to have a little Q&A! Give you guys a chance to get to know me, as well as the other project 64 contributors, a little better! After my post today feel free to leave a question for me, it can be about the blog or blogging, photography, motherhood, being a woman, my favorite color, anything you might want to know....next week I'll try to answer most or all of them in my blog post! Make sure you come back every day this week and leave some questions for the other project 64 ladies at the end of their post! We love you guys and love interacting with you all so please ask away! Also I know we have lots of followers who just follow and do not submit entries, you are more than welcome to join in on the Q&A! I can't wait!

I hope your hunt for red violet goes well, but in the meanwhile, let's see your pacific blue finds!!

As always no fancy camera required and flickr link ups welcome! Please link back to Project 64!

Pacific Blue {Shana}

Today my husband and I are getting things ready to pack for our move home. So in between cleaning, laundry and a head cold, I had to try to find the color of the week. I took several pictures of objects but just couldn't find the shot I wanted. Then I looked down at my camera strap and there it was.

I am actually posting this on my own! Thank you Brooke for helping me through the Blogger ban.

I am loving everyone's Magenta link ups... keep 'em coming!

Pacific Blue and a Room with a View! (Sheryl)

Yesterday while cleaning my "creative area" I looked out and was once again amazed at the place where I live.  Having the opportunity to have a Bosporus view from my desk is something I never dreamed of, frankly, never considered!  Living in Istanbul is a highlight of my life and even that is about to change. Change is always good -- even when it looks bad and even turns out to be hard.  I am looking to this change to refuel my own excitement and renew my creative spirit. 

Thanks for stopping by---Love, Love!!

Whew!  It's midnight...so technically I am a day late now as the clock keeps ticking away.  I have been editing photos for the last few evenings and I get so caught up in them that I don't realize what time it is!

Here is my first photo and my original idea for my pacific blue:

I had so much fun shooting five prom couples this weekend.  If you are on Facebook, find me!  Kendall Johns Artography.  I just started my fan page this weekend.

And here is my second photo which just jumped out at me and I wanted to share it.  Last May, my husband's best friend passed away.  It has been an emotional year for all of us.  His birthday was April 18, so we got together with his family and friends and had a party celebrating the beautiful life that he shared with us for too short a time.  We let balloons go and this was one of my favorite pictures.

Keep posting your pictures.  They get better and better each week!  And I think the hunt gets more difficult each week...or is that just me feeling that way?!?

Week 16 Color Reveal

This week has been crazy...this day has been crazy! I spent 5+ hours on the phone with dell today, my crayons for this months color disappeared and the one I dug out of the boys color box rolled off my paper and fell under my porch before I could photograph it! Not to mention while I'm sitting here I discovered our resident armadillo has returned and now is tearing up our yard.  That was just today, my rest of my week was full of restoring my computer to factory settings, photo sessions, backing up files, editing, thunder storms, paperwork and mounds of laundry!!!!

So, this week I pulled one from the archives for this week's color! I took this during a photo shoot in downtown Tulsa, I love this location! I thought the blue "door" (I actually think it use to be a fountain) was perfect for pacific blue!

 A big Thank You to Kendall for providing the pics for this weeks color prompt photo, I sent a text to her tonight and she came through for me in pinch!

Happy color hunting!
