The "Colors of the Caribbean" Story

It was an ordinary day. I had just written a few stories on my blog about the color of the architecture, the sunsets and the beaches in the Caribbean and as I was going through the many, many images I have stored on my computer, I realized how very colorful the islands of the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean really are. Just everyday things and items which you see everywhere. I had tons of choices to chose from, but have limited it to 11 photos which give you some insight into the many colors of the islands. Hope you enjoy the images.













The first photo was taken in Barbados of a young boy dreaming under a palm tree. 2nd was taken on St. Martin (SXM) at Boo Boo Jams on Orient Beach. 3rd was on Pinel Island of a sugar bird inside a boutique. 4th was at a pottery factory on the island of Barbados. 5th was on Orient Beach in SXM. 6th was of a store window on the French island of St. Barts. 7th was at Ma DouDou rum store on SXM. 8th was taken while relaxing during happy hour on Barbados. Thought I had to have one of each color. 9th was taken at the butterfly farm on SXM. One of about 100 I took that day. 10th was taken on Jamaica at the Sandals Resort in Ocho Rios. And the last one was taken at the market in Marigot on SXM. Some are more colorful than others, but all reflect the many colors of the islands. Thanks goodness for digital photography and the realistic colors you can achieve in photography. It was another extraordinary day in the life of an ordinary guy.
