I associate orange with many delicious scents, tastes, and sights. Yet I must admit that when it comes to clothing, decorating, and the color wheel in general, orange is my least favorite color.

Perhaps you can change my mind... Your photo, poem, or article might be just the thing to convince me that orange is as beautiful as pink, blue, purple and green... Give it your best shot this week at Rainbow Connections - Colorful Competitions! Have fun!

I went shopping this weekend and half of the new clothes at the store is pink or orange. I'm sure you will be seeing a lot of it this season.

Two GREAT photographs! Orange, huh? I'll go scratch my chin for awhile on that one... Don't think I can come up with anything as wonderful as the two photos above.
Gary H. Apr 14, 2008, 2:03am EDT
Interesting color
Wanda H. Apr 14, 2008, 2:09am EDT
I feel the same way about orange. But maybe we can all find something orange to change all our minds.
Patty H. Apr 14, 2008, 2:27am EDT

Orange and aqua just take me back to the 60s. My hair is kind of soft orange and I've always been partial to the colour so will enjoy contributing some of my orange photos to the competition. Thank you so much for this great Gather group Sherrie.
