It’s time for another color challenge! Yay! The waters around Hawaii are a beautiful variety of aquamarines. In this photo, you can see the gradual (and sometimes not so gradual) shift from the lighter to the deeper shade of this amazing color. The deeper the water, the deeper the color. So it’s time to get your Pacific Ocean inspired colors on and take or find images with this jewel-shade of the waters.
(P.S. If you are planning any underwater photography in aquamarine waters, the experts recommend a red filter for your camera to counterbalance the affects of the water color. It really does work.)
IN A NEW POST CREATED FOR THIS CHALLENGE, SHARE A PHOTO OR TWO (OR MORE) FEATURING THE COLOR AQUAMARINE.
Everyone is welcome to participate, even if your blog isn’t about photography.
Here’s how it works:
- Each week, I’ll come up with a theme and post a photo that I think fits. You take photographs based on your interpretation of the theme, and post them on your blog (a new post!) anytime before the following Thursday, when the next photo theme will be announced.
- To make it easy for others to check out your photos, title your blog post “A Photo a Week Challenge: (theme of the week)” and be sure to use the “postaday″ tag.
- Come back here and post a link to your image in the comments for this challenge.
- Follow nancy merrill photography so that you don’t miss out on weekly challenge announcements.
Wow like the bottom was made of green emeralds 😍
Yes! That’s what I thought, too. 🙂
😃
Truly beautiful!
Thanks, Amy!
oh good, I didn’t know about red filter for water photography.

Beautiful colors in that shot, Nancy!

Thanks, janet!
That is a color of water you do not see in the northeast, but it is so deliciously warm sea. The Caribbean looks like that and so do parts of the Mediterranean, but not the North Atlantic!
You don’t see it here in Utah, either. 😉
A great colour to choose as a theme Nancy. Here is my offering: https://travelwithintent.com/2017/07/01/aquamarine-in-venice/
And it’s up: https://teepee12.com/2017/07/02/turquoise-almost-aquamarine/
A superb view this is, Nancy. Lovely capture 🙂
Thanks, Hammad!
