    AOCDS tartan

    I've begun playing with a service band, the Association of Orange County Deputy Sheriffs Pipe Band.

    Their tartan is beautiful, to me. From a distance it seems mostly olive green with orange stripes, but a closer look revealed old gold, sky blue, and teal in addition to the muted olive, black, and a colour I don't know how to name, somewhere between orange and fuchsia.



    No matter what light I used for taking the photos (full sun, open shade) or how I adjusted the colours in the computer I couldn't get the colours right. What shows up as yellow should be Old Gold, and the teal doesn't look as teal as it does in person.

    The fabric was woven by Lochcarron, 16oz. I'm told that the tartan was designed by Andrew Ross with input from members of the AOCDS.

    Here's the Drum Major, Craig Stevens, a retired Sheriff.
