(in the interests of full disclosure, the colour had a little help from Lightroom ;p)

for my push challenge... set by @homeschoolmom - to shoot something upbeat that's full of colour...

[☠northy]

@homeschoolmom - closer?

Beautiful. So peaceful! See, you can do color...and survive! LOL!

[Graeme Stevens]

Excellent shot

[gloria jones]

Great shot, tones, light

[Barb Newcomb]

Well done for the colour!! Wonderful tones in this.

[diane day]

Lovely capture and color effect

[Yeshanghai]

So gorgeous

[Mary Siegle]

Beautiful, not quite monotone but heading back toward sepia and the ultimate goal -- B&W normality as you know it. Hang in there. We're all rooting for you.

[Taffy]

If you have to have color, this is the way to go. Great textures within the golden layers.

[Gena Pegg]

Beautiful light and golden color!

[Call me Joe]

Love the energy !!:)

[Sally Ings]

Super capture, simple yet effective

[Sue]

Lovely bands of texture and colour. Can't decide if it quite meets the criteria of 'upbeat and full of colour'.

[Rachel]

Beautifully golden.

[Shepherdman's Wife]

Lovely smooth golden colour but also monotone so I guess not full colour really! Upbeat? more peaceful and serene. Come on @northy , lets have some vibrant, exciting colour haha! I do like this though.

[Mona]

Its beautiful, its golden,... gold and silver are always upbeat.

[Chris P]

awesome colors

[PhotoCrazy]

Wonderful!!

[Katia]

See - you can do colour too! :D Wonderful shot!

[Marta]

Very nice!

[Joan Robillard]

I see the get-pushed meanies are at you again for color. Well you have shown them. LOL (oh, I was one of those meanies).

[summerfield]

this is prettiful!

[Carla]

I'm with our other ladies. Not really colourful or upbeat. It's decadent. Deep and rich and silky and serene and just, well, gorgeous. It's a photo you can practically taste.

[Danny G.]

Lovely tones, fav. And thanks for the kind words on "The End" :)
