Weekly Photo Challenge: Green

Today’s Photo Challenge is a multi-photo challenge sharing pictures in a gallery which means green to me.

I never really realized how many photos I’ve taken actually fall into various shades of green classifications. The shaded pool is a lush summer green. The blue parrot in front of the background trees is a wild and free green. The swimming fish is obviously a Mississippi River green. The hazy buildings seemingly being swallowed up the encroaching growth is a victorious green. The Green Planet is going to win in the end! The same goes for the Chihuly Glass artwork in tropical swamp. The Chinese garden is cool, comforting green. The head of cabbage is a nutritious green. The sculptures in the reflecting pool is and artistic green. The praying mantis shows a creepy green and the dandelion puff a fairy-like green. The Granny Smith apples is an end of summer green. But the green of the old bird house among the budding branch is the finest green of  all … the green of spring and the season of rebirth. (Clicking on each thumbnail will allow you to see the full sized photos.)

But in all honesty the green we probably prize the most is the one we find on the back of the dollar.
