Color Splash On White

Uploaded: February 05, 2012 07:05:10

Description

Talk about a photo op; imagine my delight finding this colorful silo painted with sunflowers surrounded by a blanket of white after a recent Colorado snowstorm. Even though the undercarriage on my car was a muddy mess from that country dirt road, the color and capture made it all so worth it.

Exif: F Number: 9, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/500 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 58.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 60D

What a great way to decorate a silo! In all my years of country living and traveling, I've never seen anything like this! Terrific capture, Melissa! #1441401

Glad you like Monnie...you can actually see each artist name by their flower...I was way too excited and happy that I made myself get out and drive around.

Thanks all. I googled this silo and actually found some info about it. I look forward to seeing how it contrast with the terrain in the coming seasons.
