Colored in Your Favourite Place

Print this page Print this page
     

Starting with my annual hike on Earth Day, I try to spend at least one day every two weeks outside, hiking. During the summer months, this can escalate to maybe even twice a week, but I'm fortunate enough to have a sprawling national park very near to my home. I consider it one of my favourite places on Earth.

With all of the valleys in my area carved by glaciers, cliff tops are somewhat commonplace. Seen from below in the image below, these cliffs have spawned many daydreams, many stories, and many conversations.

Though typically it's the view that brings me there, the cave running from the top to the base is beautiful as well, and usually keeps cool when the summer days forget to bring breezes.

Got a favourite place where you go to find some quiet?

A place where you bring all your friends during the summer? The winter?

Got a favourite place to take photographs?

... got a favourite place?

Make a palette of its predominant colours and share it with us.

Here's what I came up with:

earth and sky

I haven't gotten to visit my favourite place for awhile but I think about it almost every day. Below is a palette for just one of countless locations within the Minnewaska State Preserve that I used to frequent (a picture is attached on the palette info page).

My favourite place to be and take photos is the zoo. I have brought all of my friends to the zoo in the summer and winter, and it's a lovely place to have quiet when it's cool out. I took over 350 photos during my last visit to the zoo, and here's a palette of one of my favourite birds.

Pretty Bird

the description is in the palette, but this is in reference to my grandparents' home in northern Michigan on the lake. Sand dunes and beach grass/ sea glass are the inspiration.
