Ok so i am making some colour orientated posters as a gift for someone... (there are 4 of them each one has 4 pics on it and each poster has its own colour one is red, blue, green, yellow) so what im looking for is ideas of things to take for the colours blue and yellow... im looking for some stuff that is really creative so not things like the sky or a school bus... i almost have the colour yellow covered because of fall colours but i am completely stumped for blue

if anyone has some ideas it would be a great help

You could turn your white balance to tungsten or flourescent and experiment with different objects under daylight. This will give your shots a blue cast. Tatoos might be interesting?

hmm i like your white balance ideas, prob cauz it would work and i never thought of it lol

and tattoos is an interesting one aswell... i was going to do urban graffiti but the freakin suburbs dosnt have any that is worth taking a pic of

thanks for thoes ones.. and keep the ideas coming

Eyes.

You could use the reflections off of a blue tinted, reflective (mirrored) glass-clad building or a blue sculpture of some sort.

Water, bluejays, (eyes - great idea - humans, cats, dogs), fabric, glass vase or bowl (resale shop) marbles, tropical fish, an open can of paint, part of a neon sign, lapiz jewelry, and what about ordinary objects, but really macro, or just a piece of an object--I have these scissors that have blue & grey handles that could be a really nice form if just part of the curve is used... you get the idea. Sounds like fun!

Smurfs:-)

Going with brphoto's idea, I think you should use that "Corporate Religion" building shot of yours and crop and change the colors.

And, I knew Darryl was going to say that eventually! lol

Nuthin' says lovin' like somethin' from the oven

so ... Blue Jello ... er, ... Jeffo's Jello ..

If you find a good recipe you could go on to open little drive-thru jello bars next to freeway onramps ... coz ... everybody I know likes to see if they can keep their jello on the spoon while navigating the spoon to their mouth ... in rush hour traffic

You'd be a tycoon, a mogul, ... a jello czar

Mushrooms!

Blue? Hmmm.... the water in a swimming pool (light blue), or maybe colbalt glass (dark blue)..

blue glass mosaic, fabric, parts of different flags, delft ceramics, TV screen (on) often gives a bluish tinge, cold lips, bower bird nest, children's toys, row of books/DVD cases with mainly blue spines, blue cars.

Great ideas so far. There's little to add, but still, maybe try out:

1) Melting ice-cubes (any shape) with tungsten WB would be really cool. Could work out great with yellow tinting (or simply yellow lighting).

2) Cooking oil (/ water mixed) tinted (physically) in different colors sprayed /sprinkled /spilled on glass (perhaps in the form of a mirror).

(I'm a macro oriented guy so for me it's just a question of getting the right angle and lighting... I would nail it in a couple of hundred shots I guess... ^_^)

Wow Thanks everyone these are some great ideas... ill post the final products when i get it all done... in the mean while if you still think of anything im all ears
