I have been nominated by Madhu of theurgetowander for My world in five colours for the Capture the Colour photo competition, the 2013 edition.
The rules say that I publish a post with five original shots from my travels, that best represent the colours blue, green, yellow, white and red, on or before 9 October. I then need to tag five other bloggers and link back to Travelsupermarket on Facebook or Twitter with @travelsupermkt and #CTC13 hashtags.
So here are my five snapshots from different countries in the world:
BLUE: Floating icebergs on Iceland.
RED: Pohutukawa (” Christmas tree”), New Zealand
YELLOW: Alley in Copenhagen, Denmark
WHITE: The Pothala Palace, Lhasa Tibet
GREEN: Highgate Cemetery, London, England
My nominees, with due apologies for the very short notice, are:
1. Seonaid of breathofgreenair
2. Nina of Vackrare
3. Viveka of myguiltypleasures
4. Meg of Meg Travels
5. Ailsa at Where’s My Backpack?
This challenge is open to everyone – you don’t need to be nominated to take part. The deadline for submitting your entry is 9 October.
If you don’t have a Facebook or Twitter account simply email your entry to capturethecolour[at]travelsupermarket.com, complete with your name, address and phone number.
Good luck to Madhu and to all my blogger friends that are taking part in this challenge!





Your iceberg photo is amazing, and I really love the simplicity of the Highgate Cemetery one too. Well done and good luck. 🙂
Thank you, Ad. It was a bit late I got it, so …it wasn’t easy to think properly when choosing pictures. Hopefully they are OK.
Stunning each one Ann Christine! But that iceberg is just breathtaking! Great job. And good luck 🙂
thank you for great support! Good luck you too!
These are brilliant! Thanks for stopping by. Hope I have been helpful.
Thank You!
These are such beautiful photos for this competition!! I am so disappointed that I missed this…have been internet-less for more than week but back on air now!!
I only knew the weekend before! Hopefully I will be better prepared if there is a next time. Then you will come along too I hope!
Wonderful selections for the five colours. They look so good together in one post.
Thank you – it had to be a quick fix, but I’m so glad you think they work together!
They do.
Love your white entry especially! Good luck in the competition!

Thanks for passing this on to me, but I have to turn it down this time, too short notice, but I can make a post based on the subject.
Thanks, Viveka! – and I know, I know – too short. I got it so late myself that it was almost impossible.
