Primary colors are red, blue and yellow. What makes them special is all other colors are created by mixing two or more of these three colors together. Generally speaking, these are not usually seen together but I did manage to find a few random examples to share.
The first two images show how dramatic the sky can appear when it is lit up with reddish, yellowish and blue colors. (Click on each picture to see it in full view.)
For fun, this is a recent TV picture of Hurricane Franklin as it was passing by the FL, GA, SC coast, heading north in the Atlantic Ocean. Good news is it never made landfall.
A coral exhibit in the New England Aquarium, Boston, MA.
Walt Disney’s characters Snow White and three of her dwarfs, Happy, Doc and Bashful (I think). Another example of primary colors being used together.
It is not unusual to see primary colors in children’s museums, recreational areas and street art as shown in the header shot.
Hope you have enjoyed seeing these examples. Sofia, of Sofia Alves photographias, hosted the challenge this week. She shows many beautiful examples of these colors plus interesting facts about each one. Be sure to see her post by clicking here.

Wonderful examples, Sylvia. I completely forgot about Snow White 🙂
I love your coral and sunsets too, so magical and colourful.
Excellent examples Sylvia. Love that you used Franklin and the Disney figures were my favorite. Didn’t realize they were all done in primary colors. Guess Walt knew what he was doing!!
Wonderful colorful images. I love Snow White and the Dwarfs.
