Photo Scavenger Hunt :: October #3 ... Purple

Hi there everyone 😀

Astrid's challenge for us this week is to find photos denoting the word ... Purple ... as many of you will know ... my favourite colour.

I have a phone and iPad gallery full of lovely purple goodness, so my challenge this week has been to find photos that I haven't used before.

We were out for the day yesterday at the National Memorial Arboretum, near Alrewas, with friends ... completing a mystery challenge. We were all chuffed to bits to say we managed to crack the case …

In addition to this I set myself the objective of photographing everything I saw that was purple ... though I did shy away from asking the lady with the purple hair if she would mind posing for a photo.

There wasn't much to be seen and some of these look more pink than purple, but I'm blaming the light for that ...


I have also had a quick look round the garden and it seems that purple is definitely as much of an autumn colour as a summer one ...
That's me for this week ... next week's theme is costume ... not sure where I'm going to be going with that one, but there could possibly be a little man involved 💜

  1. To me, the colour purple has lots of tones and shades and I like all your 'purple' colours. Hard to pick a favourite but it might have to be the bag! I think I've got 'costume' sorted for next week; been thinking outside the box!

    1. Thank you … I actually ended up with more photos from the arboretum than I though I had. The sedum were so vibrant and I loved the succulent rainbow. The mosaic was a close up of a big mosaic butterfly. I love my backpack too … last years Xmas pressie off Martin … under supervision 💜

  4. So many lovely shades of purple, such pretty flowers. I might have been tempted to ask her for a photo, you could have made her famous!

    1. I was a bit concerned that once I mentioned it my friend wouldn’t be able to resist asking 😂
