Day 60/ 365- White

White...is not a mere absence of color; it is a shining and affirmative thing...
~Gilbert Keith Chesterton

Hand held Canon EOS 5D; EF24-70mm f/2.8L USM lens; 70mm focal length; manual exposure; ISO 800; f/4.5; 1/125; overexposed 1/2 stop; auto white balance; no flash

White:

Neutral
Cleanliness, purity, softness
Cool
Bride
Innocence, possibility, openness
Completion, wisdom, assimilation of life's lessons
Snow
Newness
Crisp, clear, 
Fresh
New beginnings
Clear endings.
Pearls
Milk
Lace.

Here is to fresh beginnings and clear endings...

Weigh In:  What did I miss?  What word do you associate with white?

  1. Clean.
    That's the word I associate with white. White is a difficult color to photograph but you've done it here quite admirably. Very very nice.

  3. Hmm, I associate white with purity. And all your buttons made me think of my great-grandma.

  4. Love the collection of whites and how you've composed this. White is both simplicity and purity..and a blank page on which to begin.

  7. Your photo reminds me of the segment on the "Ellen" show yesterday. She spoke about painting a room in her house white and joked that there is no such thing as just "white paint". There is ivory white, antique white, country white, etc...

    It's not like someone will walk into your newly painted white room and say, "Wow, I love that color, is that cotton ball white?". hee hee.
