blue on that unique day of the year
January 18, 2011
At last, some brightness and clear blue skies . . . the best present after days of rain!
. . . looking upwards and wondering who is flying in, or out . . .
. . . soft wisps of clouds contrast the angularity of the roofscape . . .
. . and on the beach, silhouettes against the light and small blue bits of detritus on the pebbles.
Ducks flying low over the sea . . . just a calming visual essay in blue as the light changes . . . .
And at Plenty, close-ups and the view from inside to out.
No, I’m not blue just thoughtfully looking outwards and upwards!
A slash of Blue—
A sweep of Gray—
Some scarlet patches on the way,
Compose an Evening Sky—
A little purple—slipped between—
Some Ruby Trousers hurried on—
A Wave of Gold—
A Bank of Day—
This just makes out the Morning Sky. Emily Dickinson A Slash of Blue

I love your pebble photographs. They are so serene and peaceful.

The sky has been grey here for weeks, so your blue sky pictures were such good medicine!

Absolutely – what a difference some sun and warm light makes. The pebble photos are easy to take here . . . acres of the stuff but always a different matrix of shapes and tones.
