Yes, you read that right. Iraq. For today's submission to @kalemandra's #ColorChallenge, I'm in Erbil, the de facto capital of the autonomous region of Kurdistan.
This photo was taken in the square at the foot of the Erbil citadel, which is the world's oldest continuously inhabited urban development. A vibrant area full of locals, expats and tourists, I captured this stunning sunset when I stopped for a cup of tea. Yes, I know it's not exactly purple, but it's the closest thing I had in my collection!
If you would like to read about my experiences travelling in Iraq, I'll be sharing them in the coming months, so make sure to follow my blog!
The colours of the day are as follows:
Monday - Red
Tuesday - Orange
Wednesday - Yellow
Thursday - Green
Friday - Sky blue
Saturday - Indigo
Sunday - Purple
Full information about the color challenge is available here.
If you'd like to read about my experiences travelling from India to Germany without using a plane, you can find all of my travel stories by searching for the tag #redpilgrim.
I'm searching for great content! If you are a traveller, a photographer, or you write about human sciences (psychology, politics, philosophy etc), I want to see your material. Please let me know about it in the comments below.
Nice: )
