August Color Combination Inspiration, Round 2

Welcome to another edition of color combination inspiration!  I hope that you're able to find something here that sparks a new idea of some sort for your creative endeavors.  As always, I've done my best to mix up the subjects that I feature.  You can pull color combinations from any source for literally any type of creative project.  Click on the photos to visit the original sources.  Enjoy!

The turquoise/brown boots that I featured earlier this month were so well received that I had to bring back this color combination.

Scavenger Hunt and I Heart Macro on Monday (8/27/12)

Welcome to another edition of the photo Scavenger Hunt and I Heart Macro!  Enjoy!

1) School

This is one of the schools in our neighborhood. Our theory is that they saved this piece from a previous school building or property and preserved it in this arch. I love the detail shot, but I wanted to include the full shot so you can get a little more context.

2) Rule of Thirds

This is another shot that I took at Lake Michigan in Kenosha on Sunday. I'll be honest: the rule of thirds does not come naturally for me. At all. But I'm working on it.

3) Side Profile

The event that we went to on Sunday was an Eagle Scout ceremony. I'm sure that most of you don't know that Jake is an Eagle scout, which is why he was participating here.

4) Small

This is another shot from my Chicago excursion last week.

I'm also using this as my photo for I Heart Macro this week.

5) Motion

Here is a final shot of Lake Michigan from Kenosha. I don't think that I would ever get tired of looking at this view.

Check out Ashley's blog to see what other people submitted for the themes this week.

Here's your weekly dose of Angel this week. I love how she'll hide her face with one of her paws.

The Monthly Photo Challenge Update:

Check out how my progress is going with the monthly photo challenge: August Photo A Day Challenge. We were gone most of the weekend so I haven't added as much as I usually would, but I'll catch up again this week. I still have a few new pictures up there.
