Blue by far is the most amazing of all the colors. I would also argue on behalf of reddish-yellow early morning Sunrise but really, its a 'thing' that you experience in the morning and break down and cry for 2 minutes. But blue stays with you for the entire day. Its so awesome that in fact when you miss the sunrise red you can still find solace in blue.

Indigo and purple.. and of course who could forget emerald green. Just wow.

I find my solace in the natural color of green; the color of grass, leaves, plants, etc. That, accompanied by natural sunlight is where I look to when I need to find serenity within my mind.

Gray, from the moon.

Cold hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colours from our sight
Red is gray and yellow, white
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion

Sometimes red, or orange or yellow,
Sometimes violent, blue, or green,
and sometimes anything in between.

A Doppler tree! If you drive fast enough, they're all green... well, except for the green which would be blue.



Flourescent beige!

Blue sky, bluer ocean, a yellow sun, the horizontal white lines of the surf breaking on a sparkling tan beach with a colorless warm breeze, and the green fronds of palm trees above.

As in the blue one sees on steel shavings, or on heated steel that slightly oxidizes?
