A Pop Of Color

This one is for The Daily Post: Photography 101.

For today’s challenge, I share three photos that show a ‘pop (or two) of color’ on muted tones. A mix of beauty (the first two) and kitsch (the third).

Maupiti - August 2014 - The Fisherman's Wife

The first was taken after we sailed into calm waters just inside the often treacherous entry pass in Maupiti, Society Islands, French Polynesia.

New Zealand - November 2014 - Dreaming Of An Ocean Voyage

The second was taken of a boy patiently awaiting the arrival of the Hōkūle‘a in Waitangi, New Zealand.

New Zealand - November 2015 - Total Span Mascot

The third image was captured while driving from Kerikeri to Paihia.  While not as beautiful as the first two, he made me smile.

I am finally getting out and about more in New Zealand.  Headed to Auckland today with my cousins for a taste of what it has on offer. So excited.
