It’s time to continue with my colour series that I started at the beginning of the year. These are some of my favourite posts to put together as they make me look at my travel photos in a whole new way! Today, everything is green.
Green is said to be a colour that represents calm, harmony, peace and balance. It is also associated with growth, spring and renewal. Green of course is also tied in with nature and also stability. On the other hand, green can sometimes represent jealousy and possessiveness.

Thanks so much 🙂 Yes, they are all my photos. I love creating these posts as I get to look at my travel shots in a different way 🙂 Hope you’ve had a nice weekend!
For some reason I never used to love green but it’s definitely one of my favourite colours now – I love that it always pops, no matter what! 🙂 Beautiful photos as always Marcella xx
I agree! I’m getting more into green these days 🙂 Thanks Camila!!
Ah the sheep…they are so cute!! Green makes me think of open fields and the time I studied in the UK (Lancaster) where I was surrounded by green scenery!
I knowww, they just stood and stared at me! I also think of wide open spaces and lush fields – just like England 😀
What a great idea for a post. I love your collection of greens, especially the cactus and the chili-peppers. I have a thing for close-ups.
Thanks so much, I’m glad you like it! Ohh me too, I love photographing close up 🙂
Lovely colour series!!! For me ‘green’ represents ‘hope’ 🙂 that’s why I really like this colour 🙂

I only just recently learnt about green being the colour of hope, but it really makes sense since it is all about new beginnings too!
Amazing!! You have been to so many amazing places!
I love all the green, as Pati, green also means hope to me 😀
