Teal Appeal (Rainbow Connections Weekly Winners)

This week at Rainbow Connections, I think we've all gotten a real feel for Teal.

On some of our screens, teal looked a little more blue.

 And on others, a little more green...

The way teal seemed even varied in different lights...

 Yes, it's been a week of looking at things from different perspectives.

 And even though we may not agree on whether teal is more blue or more green...

 We've had fun learning that no matter what our opinion, teal does have a certain universal appeal.

 So no matter what you think about teal's precise placement on the color wheel...

No matter how rough...

Or rocky the road may seem at certain times...

Rest assured that we can all agree on one thing...

 These teal entries are the real deal!

And now, let's congratulate the Winners of Rainbow Connection's Teal Competition by voting 10 for each of them!
