In honor of our fading fall colors and Halloween, I thought I’d put together a post honoring all the beautiful orange colors I’ve seen around the world. Often I’m tempted to take pictures of blue and green hues as I love capturing landscapes. But what about orange? Orange can be quite a lovely, warm color and can also be sometimes found in the most unexpected places.
Here is a look at some of the fabulous orange hues I’ve seen through my travels. If you feel inspired by orange, feel free to share a post of your favorites as well and link back here. I will also tweet them out with the hashtag #orangearoundtheworld.

Great idea on color. On the Great Wall of China, is that you and your favorite traveling companion?

Yes I know. I have been on WordPress’ case for six months now about it and they can’t seem to fix it! I am so sorry. I will keep up at bothering them about it. There are days when only one goes out but the last few have been two. Thank you for your patience. I really sincerely hope WP can resolve the issue! I know how annoying it is! Nicole
