Hi everyone.
Ready to test your creativity? This weekâs challenge invites you to explore the power of a single color!
Create an image using only shades and tones of one color, whether itâs cool blues, fiery reds, soft purples, or moody greys.
The prompt I used: A surreal forest made entirely with shades of purple from soft lavender mist to deep plum shadows. Trees, ground, and sky are all variations of purple, creating a dreamy, otherworldly atmosphere. Light and depth come from contrast, not color variation.

Prompt: A luminous image of a young child joyfully running through a wide field of giant yellow sunflowers, every element rendered in a radiant spectrum of yellows. The childâs hair, clothing, and the surrounding flowers glow with golden light, sunlight streaming from above and casting soft, dreamy shadows. The background blurs gently into a haze of sun-drenched yellow meadow, creating a warm, uplifting mood. The entire composition is bathed in monochromatic yellow tonesâfrom pale lemon to deep goldâfor a cohesive, emotionally resonant image, with a storybook style.

Prompt: A blue cat wearing sunglasses riding a blue marlin like it's a motorcycle in the blue water. The sky is completely blue. There are no colors other than blue. Monochromatic, blue hues and tones only.
Effects: Fantasy, Surrealism, Cinematic, Monochromatic
This cool cat is so bad to the bone he doesn't even care about stepping out of the monochromatic color scheme forced upon him by society.
Prompt :- A quiet street in a small town at sunrise, where every detail â the houses, trees, parked cars, and sky â is depicted entirely in shades and tones of soft purple.

Prompt: Product photography of a minimalist perfume bottle placed on a matte green cylindrical pedestal, surrounded by fresh green foliage that casts soft shadows against a monochromatic light green background. Frontal angle, soft diffused natural lighting with diagonal sunbeams adding depth, monochromatic green palette, clean composition with organic elements, styled for a modern eco-friendly product campaign.
The call of Nature!
Prompt: A photorealistic forest mountain landscape composed entirely of different shades of green. A lone hiker stands on a rocky cliff in the foreground, surrounded by tall evergreen pine trees. The background features multiple layers of misty, overlapping mountain ridges fading into the distance. The lighting is soft and diffused, evoking early morning or dusk. All elements â trees, mountains, sky, and the figure â must be rendered only in varying tones of green, from deep forest green to pale mint and lime. Wide vertical composition with a high contrast silhouette effect in the foreground.
