Roy. G. Biv







thank goodness for airports otherwise i’d never be motivated to painstakingly scour my flickr logs for colourific representations of Roy G Biv’s spectral representation of whatever colour actually is…..  







01_red_




Never really liked red to be honest, i mean its rich, commanding and is said to enhance humidity, but offers very little in the way of casual intrigue…  this was shot on the side of a road in Sth Korea and, to be completely contradictory, i find red leaves so incredibly beautiful, perhaps due to the 1 season regime [fucking hot] of queensland and the extreme lack of deciduous flora.

Orange was the first pickle in selection as a singular colour palette in the natural environment is incredibly rare, especially when the spectral range relevant to his first name [Roy] rarely exist separately..  thankfully sunsets happen everyday ;)














03_yellow_DSC_7931



This photo was the fuel for this post [and 14 shots of coffee] but mainly because yellow, outside of flowers [i was trying to avoid including flowers as thats cheating]  and this is the one picture i’ve found that presents a strong yellow.   this is a mineral pool that i found in Valle De La Muerte (Chile)

Throwing back to my party days of disco lasers and documenting {mostly} underaged drunkards …..  don’t do this with your main camera, apparently it has the power to blow sensors [youtube it]

Well this is pretty much a perfect wave, typical for TOS.

Galahs at dusk, probably scouring the urban environment below for potential roost.

rant via my fb page :  much like the Catatumbo lightning of Venezuela this storm cell in the NW of Argentina fires 150+ days a year without ever moving.. perhaps interestingly this phenomenon usually occurs in methane rich environments and the reaction which, in the case of Catatumbo, generates more tropospheric ozone than any other source on earth..... primordial soup intrigue.
