Deciding on just one photo for this week’s Photo Challenge theme COLOR was a real challenge.
Deciding on just one COUNTRY was even harder!
Here is my second response to the challenge.
Enjoy the warm and vibrant colors of Cameroon!
The red of tropical flowers.

Yellow school uniforms and taxis near the University of Yaounde campus.
No, it’s not Mardi Gras! These guys are selling mobile phone minutes.

The green of unripe bananas.

Bonus!

Thank you! It is such a gray, cold day here that I found myself going through my Cameroon photos on my lunchbreak. Now if only I could recapture the heat of Central Africa as well as the vibrant colors! Thanks for your comment.

Thank you so much! It’s incredible, but these photos are real – the colors really, truly are this vibrant. So much richness and depth in Cameroon – this is only a tiny taste. Thanks very much for your comment!

Gorgeous! I started off pale and then got a bit carried away.
Love the arthureums. (I think that’s what those red plants are called but no idea of the spelling) 🙂

Thanks restlessjo! I don’t know anything about plants. I thought the one at the top of the arrangement is called a “Bird of Paradise”. I have never seen one as big as this, though. I love going to countries with warmer climates and seeing the little houseplants that we have in the US growing as gigantic bushes!

Fabulous colours. Mine were from India and Nepal where wonderful colours abound too. Everything here in the UK seems so drab in comparison – apart from our lovely Spring flowers, of course! 🙂

India and Nepal are definitely full of color! I can’t wait to check out your post. Things are not only drab here where I live in the US, but we got snow today. Last year at this time everything was green! Enjoy your spring flowers for me. Thanks much for your comment!
