Orange/Friday Fences

At the side of a house on ariver

Not just anyone could paint a fence orange and make it look so good.  I think it works well here where there are several other artsy properties.

I am linking to Friday Fences here.

Suburban Girl said...

I agree. Color can make the ordinary so much more interesting.

Pamela Gordon said...

It certainly stands out but looks nice with the green surroundings. :)

Nancy said...

Orange is a bold choice -- but it does work well here.

A little too bright for me, but it does look good against the greenery.

Kate said...

Bravo for those homeowners who decorate what pleases them!

Lowell said...

It certainly does brighten up the landscape. I'd probably have painted it white, but bland does what bland is. Or something like that!

Oh no, my first thought was it was some portable construction barriers that I see used around here. Afraid orange wouldn't be my choice for a fence. Nice photo though.

it is ok, but orange is not a favorite color for me and i would not want it in my yard. a drive by look would be great but not a daily dose... this reminds me of all the colorful houses in our village of the arts.

Nicki said...

That is bold and awesome.

Stephanie said...

They stand out the orange against the greenery.

TexWisGirl said...

except for the fact that it reminds me of the orange plastic construction fencing i had to erect around our pond's edge to keep the horses back because of the drought, i'd say it looks pretty good!

Much much nicer than the purple and yellow that my grandmother's neighbours used to have!

Susan Anderson said...

Orange is not my favorite color, so I'm surprised to say that I think that looks really good!

=)

Jill said...

It really does look good!

OhMyGosh, love that. Stunning colour!!!

LONDONLULU said...

I never thought I'd say it about orange fences, but you're right! It does look pretty fab:)

Randy said...

Great color.

Judy said...

Pretty color but I'm not sure I could do it.

George said...

I think this is the first orange fence I've seen. I agree that it looks good, though.

Karen said...

I'm not a fan of that "rez" colour, but it is a great shot!

Carletta said...

The design of the fence is pleasing but I don't know if I'd do orange. :)
Nicely framed shot!

It is really daring to place a fence with this color. I am still not sure if I like it but thanks for showing.

I think it works very nicely against that rich green backdrop!

Jan n Jer said...

Wow...that color will get your attention! I like it alot!

Judy said...

It is a lovely contrast with the green trees!!!

LV said...

This orange fence definitely adds to this place.

RedPat said...

I like it a lot!

Saun said...

Now that's a orange fence.... Happy shooting

MyMaracas said...

Great find! Orange would be the last color I'd think of for a fence, but I'd enjoy it in someone else's yard.

Lots of character!

Indrani said...

Orange is a good color. I once saw a park with orange colored benches, it really enhances the mood.

While I do love the color of pumpkins I must admit that I think a little orange goes a long ways. However, I kind of like the way this fence looks. It's so bold and as you said, artsy.

Betsy said...

I like it and looks great against the green background with the tree.
I like it, the owners of the fence probably are happy and fun people.

Really admire bold color choices in exterior house/fence colors. Last year I was very pleased that this true orange was Color of the Year. And yet I don't have a single piece of clothing in this color.

Maybe the owners decided to make this color choice because others in the community were doing the same?
