Greetings ASEAN Hivers, this week's challenge is once again centered around photography, but orange is the main color for this one.

🥭 An Orange Odyssey 🏀

👨‍💻 Week #154 👩‍💻

^{April 14th ➡️ April 21st, 2025}

     Last week's photography challenge had so many participants that I decided to host another one, but this time the color might be a little more difficult to find. Orange is the theme of this one, so whether it be a fruit on a tree, a sunset, or even Donald Trump's face, anything that is orange is welcome for this challenge.

     Pumpkins, mangos, even orange wigs might find themselves in this challenge, but as always I remind you that the text is a big part of any post, even a photography challenge entry. So, with this in mind, let's grab our cameras or smartphones and hit the streets to find some orange, and if you can't find anything orange, you can always create something orange and take photos of it.

Week #153 ASEAN Hive Challenge Winners
🥾 Uncharted Backyard Destinations 🛥️

     There were so many entries that it was nearly impossible to narrow things down to three winners. There was definitely plenty of blue, and after reading all of the entries and viewing the blues, I must say I was left with a sense of calm and relaxation. Surely this had something to do with the power of blue, but who really knows. Anyhow, please have a look at these three outstanding entries and support anything of interest.

ASEAN Hive Community Challenge #153 (Photography): Into The Blue (Photoshoot with Father)
by: @tegoshei

The ASEAN Hive Community Challenge this week is entitled Photography: Into The Blue, so we are to photograph anything blue. Instead of the usual checking my phone galleries for anything blue, I decided to do a photoshoot. lol It's my and my father's schedule to go for a jog, so I requested he wear something blue because I will take photos of him. He willingly accepted my request, so here are the results. :)

ASEAN Hive Challenge #153 "Photography: Delve Into The Blue Of Myself, The Blossoms In Blue, The Blue Hour and When I'm Bluer Than Blue"
by: @diosarich

I feel a wave of tranquillity sweep over me whenever I see the color blue, whether in the outfit I wore, the blueness of the sky, the deep blue sea, or anything that is depicted on an object. Blue has always been my lucky color. It's a color that makes me feel quiet and serene. I figured out as a child that I had a thing for the color blue. I remember feeling astonishment and exhilaration as I looked up at the magnificent blue sky.

3rd Prize 🥉 4% Beneficiary & 75 Ecency Points

What are Hue?: Blue!!!
by: @straykat

Blue is one of the primary colors. A color attached to calm and ice. The total opposite of red, a color which symbolizes rage and fire. Blue is also one of the colors of nature and represents the emotion sadness. This week's ASEAN Hive Challenge, "Photography: Into The Blue", is a quite a challenge for me because this color isn't among my favorite colors but it also doesn't mean that I dislike it. Remembering what blues I have that I can share here brought me back to my mama's photos:
