Weekly Photo Challenge: Purple

Photo courtesy of Sara Rosso
Purple. Another color post! These artichokes in full bloom are absolutely gorgeous and the purple doesn’t leave room for any other color in this photo. Subtle, waning purple of a sunset; vibrant purple of grapes or eggplant – what kind of purple caught your photographic eye?
Share a picture that means PURPLE to you!
New to The Daily Post? Whether you’re a beginner or a professional, you’re invited to get involved in our Weekly Photo Challenge to help you meet your blogging goals and give you another way to take part in Post a Day / Post a Week. Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.

2. To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “Weekly Photo Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use the “postaday″ tag.

My favorite color!!
Are you sure your favourite colour isn’t strawberry? Or indigo?
One would think so, but what color would you get if you mixed strawberry red and indigo blue? Aha!

Purple Haze?
Yay!
Didn’t have any purple haze around here, so I ended up with purple transvestites & gay muslims instead…

I love the purple of lilac bushes in the spring. Therefore, here is my entry: http://www.aroundtheworldineightyyears.com/lilac-bushes/
Lovely picture! Southern California has a different kind of wild lilac, called the Ramona lilac. The flowers are smaller and they don’t smell but they still make for beautiful blossoms. I pictured the lilac in this week’s challenge (http://perfectingmotherhood.wordpress.com/2012/07/27/wordpress-weekly-photo-challenge-purple/) but I also posted pics on my photo blog I’m putting together (http://milkapejovic.com/2012/05/31/lilac-trees-in-bloom-in-southern-california/ and http://milkapejovic.com/2012/05/31/lilac-blooms-a-spring-favorite/).

As soon as I saw purple I got excited. This is an older post – but one of my favourite photos. I took it many years ago (on a tripod), after a lot of talking the guy in it in to doing it. A self portrait that last year I played around with:
