I like oranges.

I thought the Lib-dem's had yellow as their colour!  :-X

We think along the same line, as I was thinking of Red, Blue or Yellow/Orange.  :tup:

I think the Liberal Party's colour is orange, but I've screwed up because, of course, the coalition is not with the Liberals but with the Lib-Dems,  :doh: which is yellow and turquoise.  Shows how much attention I've been paying!

The only thing orange i've seen this week are track workers.  :( Need to give a can of pop to someone and hope for a "you've been tangoed" moment. Don't want to take a photo of the fruit whose name escapes me at the moment. :2funny:
Now where can I stick that traffic cone. :D

Yesterday was forecast to be sunny whilst today we would have rain. Went out yesterday and it was sunny to start but the clouds rolled in and blocked the sun.  :(

Went out today and it was sunny and remained so throughout the day with clouds blocking the sun for a bit of the time but no rain.  ;D Walked miles looking for a Orange-Tip Butterfly but the cool wind seemed to deter them. Walked over to a part of the valley where I'd seen a few butterflies before and found a Peacock butterfly on a log. Walked a bit futher along this path but didn't see any other butterflies. Started to walk back and the Peacock butterfly was still around, then a Orange-Tip flew past. Watched to see if he would land somewhere and he did on a flower. Moved up slowly and took some photos but the sun was behind a cloud, so his wings were shut. Waited for the sun to come out and hoped he wouldn't fly off. The sun came out after five minutes and he opened his wings and I got the shots.  :2funny:

I was very lucky and it was the only one I'd seen all day, about seven hours.  :tup:

Wings closed.

That first one is lovely and sharp Oldboy.  :tup:
Couldn't find anything at work today so did a quick set up and tried to get the timing right. Wasn't going to shoot an orange but an entry is an entry.
