In photography, colour does far more than add visual interest. It shapes the mood of an image, draws the viewer in, and helps communicate the story. In our Chase the Rainbow project, we celebrate colour by focusing on a different shade each month. Whether that’s seeking out the colour in nature, spotting it at home, or styling a scene with thoughtfully selected props and clothing, the project encourages creativity and seeing the world through a more colourful lens.

May’s colour is navy!

Navy is an deep, inky blue. It symbolises authority, confidence, stability and trust, and so is often used for corporate branding, uniforms and formal wear. Navy also evokes a sense of quiet strength, bringing to mind the depth of the ocean and the vastness of the night sky. Rarely found in nature, navy carries an added air of mystery and sophistication.
