New Holland Honey-eater

Weekly Photo Challenge: Vibrant

/ Christina B / 9 Comments

This week’s photo challenge asks us to share a photo of something vibrant, with vivid colours. I love bright colours, it’s like a burst of colourful happiness and joy. I had extra fun with this challenge and once again couldn’t resist doing a little gallery.

Colourful (and slightly crazy) chandelier I bought a few years ago, hanging in our kitchen in front of some of our kids’ art. I fell in love with the vivid colours of the chandelier. The colours give me so much joy.

And then a Rock Parrot moved in (I love the expression of the Honey-eater looking up at the Parrot as if to say: "And where do you think you're going?")
