My takes on today’s assignment.
Living in the Middle East, outside the cities, the colours of the land and developments seem to blend into one another in a spectrum of desert colours, lit overhead by relentless, blinding sunshine. A bright colour is an instant pop in the blended desert landscape.
Any shade of blue always catches my eye, for me, it’s the Pop colour here.
I did add one Cyprus photograph, taken in January, as the angle and structure against a blue sky seem to me, to make white the dominant colour….
What do you think?
Added tonight: 20.19: Out of my little window tonight I noticed a new light design on one of the towers in Dubai Marina, I can’t resist updating this post as the neon blue lights just pop all over the picture….blue has to be my pop colour!

2-The blue sign, vivid on a featureless landscape…

3-Bright turquoise blue water trucks, filling up at a water storage stop, Unmissable, hence the photograph…

4-Bright blue carpet sponge, underwater, you couldn’t miss it…

6-Small church in Cyprus, Blue door and blue skies makes the white structure dominant…
Hi Vicky, I love the blues that you’ve captured in these photos! I particularity like the blue water truck as it stands out in the surrounding landscape. The blue certainly adds a pop of colour!

I love the blue sponge. I love the contrast of sunlight and shadow on the Cypriot church, those stark straight lines. That is a beautiful, striking image. Lovely to meet you.
