Colour my February!

January 23rd, 2012
For those on their second year, struggling to come up with new ideas, or those on their first year without a theme to follow, listen up, I have an idea!
For each day in February, you do a colour, corresponding to a letter in the alphabet. And because there are 29 days in February this year, and 26 letters, on the last three days, you could revisit some letters and do other colours!
And I know it's not quite February yet, but posting this early means more people will get involved!
One last thing, tag your photos with "colour-february" so that everyone can see them :). Feel free to post them on this thread too!

Here's the colours that I came up with:

A- Auburn/Apple green
B- Bronze/Brown/Black/Blue
C- Cream/Crimson
D- Diamond/Desert/Denim
E- Emerald
F- Fuschia
G- Green
H- Hazel/Hot pink
I- Indigo
J- Jet Black
K- Khaki
L- Lemon yellow
M- Maroon
N- Navy
O- Orange
P- Purple
Q- Quencientor
R- Red
S- Salmon Pink/sepia
T- Teal
U- Ultramarine
V- Violet
W- White
X- Xanthic (Yellow)
Y- Yellow
Z- Zymenchlora (Purple)
Day 27- your choice/revisit a colour
Day 28- " " " "
Day 29- " " " "

Don't forget to tag your photos with "colour-february" so that everyone can see them :)

Ohhh I might do this in my year 2 album. I'll finish up year 1 on the 2nd. And I'm a nut for color. Thanks for the idea!

Hey there's also film-feb if you shoot in film, it's gonna be good. this is a nice idea, Xanthic and Zymenchlora - you deserve a medal for finding them, and another medal for spelling the word colour, and not the silly joke word color as some people do in certain countries. ;)

haha nice list. I'd do Ecru for E, but that's just me!...

OK, I google'd "Quencientor" and it came up with NO replies...you stumped Google! :) Please help with what Quencientor is. Thanks! And looking forward to this challenge.

@mabelkitty I also google'd Quencientor and it came up with Jasmine's post. So I'm no wiser either!

Here are possible solutions to the Q puzzle - Google was helpful, but only after I asked for colors that start with Q.

•Quencienta is a pale shade of indigo, used commonly by plastic manufacturers.
•Quercitron (yellow dye)
