Seeing colours

At risk of sounding a little strange...I sometimes see people as colours.

It's not like they look a certain colour, it's more that I feel it within me when I look at them. It doesn't happen all the time but sometimes when looking at a person from a distance or when interacting with them, I perceive them as colours, they radiate off the person, out of the person I suppose.. Sometimes they're bright and colourful, sometimes soft pastels, and sometimes muted shades.

It happened today when I was in the shopping mall, a few times actually. I was sitting in the food court eating lunch watching people, their colours, and tried to understand why I saw it that way. Oddly, only a handful of people presented in this way today I have no idea why, and I came home pondering this colour-perception that sometimes happens to me.

I really wanted to write about it, I have a lot of thoughts on it, as always when it happens, but sitting down to write...the words didn't come and I'm reluctant to share those that did; I'm just not sure I could convey them well.

As I was pondering, I decided to sneak my partners camera out and take some photos for what I had hoped would be a really nice post about seeing people in colours and shades...but the post wasn't to be. Rather than let the photos go to waste though, I thought I could share them in this community.

Thank you for taking a look at my photos, all taken by me today, and I hope you liked them. I'm still getting used to how the camera works and how to get the best shots I'm capable of; I know the photos aren't amazing, but that's ok for me, it was enjoyable to take them.
