Capture the Colour: Travel Supermarket competition

by Di · Published 19/08/2012 · Updated 11/06/2019

I blogged about the lovely competition that Travel Supermarket have launched – Capture the Colour – in last month’s Photo comp round up, and after much rifling through photo albums, have finally got my own entry together. They want us to blog with photos representing blue, yellow, red, green and white from our travels. The winning photo for each colour gets an iPad, plus the overall best blog post will get £2000 in travel vouchers – now, that prize would DEFINITELY be taking me to Sri Lanka next year!

I’ve been tagged by Squeaky Baby and here’s my entry for the competition:

RED

Last year we were lucky enough to win a fabulous trip with Toblerone to the Swiss Alps. We took the chairlift up the first mountain we saw, and this was the sight that greeted us – three Coke deckchairs for the three Cokes! I like how our shadow is looming over them…

YELLOW

Japan is my favourite place in the world. They put a face on practically every inanimate object, and you can’t help but smile!

WHITE

My original choice for white was a photo of Valencia, but this photo of the Olympic Basketball Arena brings back so many happy memories. We watched the Handball final there with my son and niece last Saturday and it was an amazing experience.

GREEN

Most people travel to Japan for the pink blossom of Spring or the glorious colours of Autumn. As for me, I love it all year round! This photo is of the Japanese maples in Miyajima, which shaded us from the hot sun as we climbed Mount Misen.

BLUE

The architecture in Barcelona is striking. Last year I visited the sparkling new Museu Blau and was amazed by its scale and beauty. We’re back there next month on a prize trip and will actually be going inside this time round… I can’t wait!

The final part of the competition is to tag five friends, who may or may not want to blog their own entries…

Last night I drank cocktails with some charming Nottingham bloggers, and I’m going to tag some of them… So @gidders1, @aresidence, @amummytoo, @lovechicliving and @mummy_loves – consider yourself tagged!
