There are three colors I do not have a lot of in my house- and this is one of them! (Pink and Orange are the other two.) You may be getting a lot of macro shots for those colors this month!
Awesome job getting some purple for your shot! So beautiful and vibrant. It's usually a tough color for me to find too. I remember reading in ancient times that purple was a color worn by royalty because of how expensive those dyes were...perhaps because they were rare to find.
@cjphoto You are correct- purple was worn by royalty and the dye was extracted from crustaceans. I think certain shells produced the color. They had to be ground down to dust in order to make the dye. It was a long process but the color was apparently stunning. And the people who made and sold it were almost as rich as the people who bought and dyed their garments with it.

These little fake berries (they are made out of styrofoam!) are part of a wedding favor I received a few years ago.
