It's time for the colors of August!!!!
Every month, since October last year, bloggers around the world share the colors in nature that inspire them.
This month, I took photos in the trial gardens in Prescott Park, Portsmouth, NH where a wide variety of flowers are tested each year.
We've got 3 months left to round out the year of colors (October 2009 - October 2010). You're welcome to join in this month, even if you've never played before!
Even though this toad might not be beautiful, the colors would work great together in a woven item!
To show your colors, just make a blog entry with your photos, and add a link to it here:
Please make sure your blog entry points back to this blog entry, so people can find the other colors of the month too!!
Happy August!!
If you're in the northern hemisphere, I hope that the last solidly summery month is a good one for you!
Good wishes to folks in the southern hemisphere too!!

I finally made it in time to play again......! These colors are beautiful, especially the last pic-daisies?
What beautiful pictures of flowers this month! thanks for having started this challenge. It's been a lot of fun. I will try to get my colours up soon.
Pretty, pretty colors...you always have such neat photos of flowers...
What great August colors! I've been taking shots, but have yet to get them organized into a Colors of August post. Hopefully I can do that over the weekend and get mine up early next week.
Lovely August colors. Finally able to take the time to participate. Hope to do more in the future as I will be painting out of doors too.
ooh, zinnias and cleomes, two of my very favorites.
I'm here, I'm there - which colours will I choose for this month. Dublin? Seattle?
Great colours in New Hampshire Sue.
Gorgeous colors once again! And, I love the toad. ;)
Like everyone else I love your toad! And your other August colours as well. Mine have just been posted! Now I'll allow myself to have a look at all the others' posts, which I enjoy every month so much. Thanks again therefore for organising this.
Beautiful toad! So many shades and tones. The flowers are lovely too! ;)
Wow, it looks like a lot of us are admiring Mr. Toad. That garden is just beautiful - what fun it must have been to walk through it and photograph it to your hearts content - don't you just love digital cameras?
