This is the default, no need to start the colours any longer.

You're missing
\setupexternalfigures
[location=default]
Without setting the location context doesn't check the system directories for
the sample images.
Furthermore, you're typesetting before \starttext. That's why your font is
monospaced.
And I try to separate content from style. That's why I move all style
information before \starttext and after \starttext comes only content and
markup (if possible). Nothing wrong with mixing it, but it's easier to read and
easier to change the layout after the fact.
I'd write your example as follows.
\setuppapersize
[A5]
\setupexternalfigures
[location=default]
\setupindenting
[yes, small]
\setupwhitespace
[small]
\defineframedtext
[prettyblock]
[width=10cm,
indenting={yes, small},
background=color, backgroundcolor=darkblue,
foreground=color, foregroundcolor=white,
offset=2mm,
align=flushleft]
\starttext
\startprettyblock
\noindentation
The Earth, as a habitat for animal life, is in old age and has a fatal
illness. Several, in fact.
It would be happening whether humans had ever evolved or not.
\externalfigure[cow][width=1cm]
\stopprettyblock
Below, we have two separate columns; but up here, for the nonce, we have but
the one.
\startcolumns [n=2]
Text, text, text \dots
all in the first column
\column
Words, words, words \dots
all in the second column.
And look ye here! Even more words!
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
Marco
