If I thought last week’s challenge to find something yellow was next to impossible, I cannot begin to explain how hard finding something orange was… Seriously, where is all of the orange stuff? Kid you not, even the pumpkins were white. White pumpkins?! What is that? Then I remembered that I’d picked up some oranges on my last trip to the grocery store, so I took them out of the fridge and snapped away.
Not the most inspired photographs but then, while driving to church on Sunday night, I saw this…
And this…
I was late for church but I think sometimes we need to just pull over and admire the gift of color that God gives us…
