Colors

Just curious. Does anyone ever actually USE these things, or are they really only good for the occasional 365 shot when nothing else comes to mind? ;-)

Happy Friday, all!
Great shot! Love all the colors! And no.. I dont use them...

Great 'fluid' shot - a different approach - nice! When I was a graphic designer I used them often for textural effects especially when used on textured paper before hitting the computer.

Ooh aaah.... what a super photo! Gosh you have a knack for creating such funky images. I know I get very excited when my little girl gets new pencils/crayons/chalk etc.... she isn't allowed to use it until I have taken a photo! And I may be guilty of buying things for her, knowing they will also make a good photo :)

I use crayons. I love to color.
March 11th, 2011  
great shot - love the colours and processing

I love love love this! The color is so vibrant. ...and yes in my house we have several boxes of crayons and from our daughter, to our grandkids to me use them. I still like to color on occasion.

I would guess they are not used as frequently as years past, but I can tell you, my Grnad-daughter still pulls the bucket of crayons out of the closet to become creative.

Just thinking I hadn't favved much this week except for Jenn's pic and now I have to say, this is one of the best blurry shots - creates a magical feel that I wasn't expecting from the subject matter - great colours, of course.
March 11th, 2011  
Yes! To the photo - so fun - and to the question. Nothing better than a fresh box of crayons. Love the smell and coloring with those fresh points. (My grandkids don't really get it. They prefer markers, but I keep buying them crayons hoping to convert them at some point.)
March 11th, 2011  
amazing fluidity here.. and there is no way to keep 'new' crayons here, between my doodling daughter & myself.
March 11th, 2011  
Love the colours and fantastic processing!

It's certainly a better use of them than drawing on the walls!

LOL we have an entire Rubbermaid box FULL of half-used and broken crayons (my kids are 6 and 3), but those just aren't as photogenic. I have a fresh box that I won't let my kids touch just to use them as props . . . is that totally wrong of me? Love how you've placed them - very cool pattern!
March 11th, 2011  
Great colors!
March 11th, 2011  
Great shot and funny comments!! There have been a lot of shots of crayons on here, myself included! Lol Guess the bright new ones are prettier than the broken, wore down and ripped wrapper ones. Lol

March 11th, 2011

March 11th, 2011

March 11th, 2011

But don't they make a fantastic subject! Such cool colours!
March 11th, 2011  
Awesome shot-very nice editing.

March 12th, 2011  
I really like how you treated this, Jenn. Crayolas are forever, I thought.
March 12th, 2011  
Agree with your mom!
March 12th, 2011  
Way to Pop Page! Told you it was good. :-D
March 12th, 2011  
@flygirl PP?? Musta been up there for approximately 48 seconds. That or you're seeing things!
;-)
March 12th, 2011  
I'm telling ya it was there. I clicked on it and it brought me here.
March 12th, 2011  
I have a box here waiting to be photographed sometime, hahahahha, I never use it
March 12th, 2011  
The shot is beautiful!
March 12th, 2011  
Gorgeous shot and crazy good editing!! I used mine for color matching purposes when selling quilt fabric on ebay. Since the colors varied so much from one monitor to the next I could pick a crayon that closely matched the fabric to give buyers an accurate idea of the color! My box of 64 still looks like new! :)
March 12th, 2011  
Ha, ha. Good question. I love this!!
March 12th, 2011  
I use them pretty much every day.. Work in a preschool and have a 6 year old. cant help but use them. At school the kids put paper over a old food warming tray , and then use crayons to "paint" the heat is enough that it melts the crayon. the art work they come up with is awesome!
March 13th, 2011  
Ha! Glad to see others still like to color like me. I love crayons! Thanks for making 'em look so purty. :-)
March 14th, 2011  
stunning!!! I'm in college and I still color ;)
March 16th, 2011  
wow, that is so cool!! I don't know how you did it, but it's great. Fav! Yes, we use crayons around here sometimes. Although the kids are getting bigger and not using them as much anymore. :(
