Color Polls

September - Adverse reaction to a color:

"As a very young child -- say, 4 or 5 -- I had to choke down a nasty, bitter, vile, bright yellow liquid medicine. The bottle seemed bottomless. Five decades on I still shy from that color on anything. Clothing, cars, food, boats -- you name it, I still loathe it."

John Friel

"Yellow, i loved it as a child but apparently was overexposed and now cannot stand it in more than flower sized amounts."

August - Favorite place to travel to for a change of scenery:

"Hello! My favorite place is La Gomera, in the Canarian Islands specifically La Gomera. There I can see the variety of colors the nature offers. The contrast you see between the light yellow and white coming from the buildings against a sort of greens and browns is amazing. Ah! Dark gray and almost black sand framing the blue ocean is really special. "

Marta Reyes Astrologia

"My favorite place to travel for a change of scenery is Chicago, Illinois in the winter. I love the appearance of fresh white snow. I long to gaze out of the window at the fresh snow and the pale blue sky. It reminds me of a masculine pale blue dress shirt with crisp white collar and cuffs"

Kay Miller

" I enjoy travelling back to my roots, in Rhode Island. Living in South Carolina the sense of light is so different. In the north the light seems to produce more intense colors and shadows. In the South the light seems more broad and reflects off of everything creating a washed out appearance.
I think it is relative to the angle of the sun but no matter what time of year when I travel to RI it reminds me to keep my eyes open and enjoy the scenery. "
