searching for orange by quietpurplehaze

searching for orange

I find this the most elusive colour of the rainbow and resorted to looking through our bookshelves for book jackets with orange on them.

Most of these are mine (in fact Ray does not keep books and once he has read one passes it on to somebody) but one is Neil's and one I bought to photograph for 365 as I was incredulous to see it.

I found that nearly all book jackets of sci-fi or fantasy books are blue... So I guess I've given one clue as to ownership.

p.s. I've been a bit liberal in my definition of orange!
Great find!!!

You need to see @julzmaioro to get orange subjects.You'd be able to get a variety - flowers, shoes, handbag, fingernails…

Sam that's a big spoof! This series is not written by her. If I lived nearer, I'd give it to you!

@quietpurplehaze hAHAHAHAH it got me then! Even the way her name is written is the same - but it tricked me :)

Wow what an eclectic mix of orange books Hazel suits the challenge very well:)

I have an orange car you could have used, Hazel! What could I do but order 'Five on Brexit Island' as I have just done! Diana might not be too impressed... she has enough Brexit fall-out to deal with on a daily basis at work

An orange car would have been brilliant - a REAL one?! I saw that book at Guernsey airport & then bought it half price in the local Tesco Express. I'm curious about Diana's work!

@gigiflower

That's surely the publishers sneaky idea, Sam!

@quietpurplehaze Top secret! If I really found out she'd have to kill me! :-)

@30pics4jackiesdiamond

Jackie, so glad you got and liked the book - we definitely have a few things in common, apart from Suffolk! Have company (from Suffolk) staying from tomorrow, then a short break away so around mid-April, if you are free, let's be in touch for that get-together?!

@granagringa

I'm going to be truthful and tell you that I've just abandoned my rainbow project as I felt it a bit constraining!!

@quietpurplehaze I'm on holiday all next week- staying at BackofOurGate, only plan is London on Tuesday and possibly Marwell Zoo (for photographic opportunities!) If you fancy a NT house or Winchester trip if your guests departed by then?
Have you read The Light Between Oceans? Just Beautiful!

Love how you came up with the idea
