I had said I would pick the top two in each thread but one thread had a tie for 2nd place so here are your seven SPLENDID selections, in alpha order by title. The theme was simply stated as 'color.'
Before the Rake

Chicago

Detail of the Persian Ceiling

Kabbages and Kings

Kelpies, Falkirk, Scotland

Stopping for a Drink

True Blue
