Iridescence vs luminosity

in teamsouthafrica •  7 years ago 

A while ago I did an article on travelling to work and the beauty of nature. The Cosmos flower stood out to me and made me realise the beauty that can be found in everyday life; not only in nature but the efforts of man. I love photos of far away cities in particular, and when one lives in South Africa, most cities are far away!

On recent Steemit articles, the photography has particularly captured me with incredible diversity and detail. I have also enjoyed the various colorchallenges that can be found in this site.

My wife Michele loves vibrant colours, particularly vivid purple. I used to wear drab conservative colours but she has influenced me to love bright colours. My colleagues find my latest colour trends most annoying (I loooove being annoying) and I have been forbidden to wear such ghastly apparel. Of course I have to push the boundaries (reason? Refer above) and include a picture of my attire today.

A few years ago I took the family to see the Christmas display at a venue in Johannesburg. We had to endure endless queues but there were amazing sights once we had endured. This one particularly attracted me.

Yet when we compare it to what nature herself can offer, mankind’s garish offerings are quite poor, particularly in terms of the detail up close.

Don’t you think this violet is a perfect definition of iridescence?

Excellent photos, my friend and of course the choice of clothes always excited humanity. Now the choice of colors is very great, but in my opinion, nature perfectly fits the colors and the last photo shows it. Thank you @fred703

I like the flower colure.it ie good photography. I like it very much

Beautiful picture and good post. I also like the purple color. I think if you can not wear bright colors for work, wear them at home on weekends. So bright colors are joy and a good mood. Thanks for sharing.

my family cringe sometimes at my luminous pants! (bright orange like the Dutch soccer supporters)

Nature is really beautiful. Compare with nature always make me feel about creator.

I attest to that as well. That violet is a perfect definition of iridescence due to the fact that it exhibits various beautiful colours at different distances from it.

God is indeed a great designer of this beautiful natural creatures. They speak to us a lot about him.

Thanks friend @fred703 for sharing.

Yes i will agree that violet is a perfect definition of iridescence...
Brilliant thought about iridescence-vs-luminosity..@fred703
I think, Look carefully around us and recognize the luminosity of souls

I really like that

Thanks for appreciating me..@fred703

You always write something different and unique which I find so amusing and attractive to read. Great one. Liked it

thanks, now that I am not studying, I am reading a great deal. I have just uncovered an old gem of a writer that my dad used to tell me about, it is only now that I am starting to read him.
