Focus on Life: Blue Meanie!

A hit and run post as I prepare for a weekend of Craft Fair selling.


I feel like a Meanie because I am not taking my usual amount of care with this post. Oh well. Hope you enjoy my response to the prompt from Sally Russick: "Hues of Blue." 

Here are some of the blues I like. 

Daytime moon - blue sky

The sky a little later

Wild Chicory - Early in the day

Late in the day, their color lightens

A neighbor's blue hydrangea

    Your blue hydrangea is much bluer than mine! Really like the wild chicory... looks a bit like batchelor buttons!

    A lovely lot of blues there - the wild chicory is a very pretty flower, and I do love Hydrangeas!

    These are so nice- I love the moon in the blue sky, and the 'before and after' style!

    Cool blue photos. It's interesting to learn that the wild chicory changes color during the day.

    Love them all! The sky always captures my attention and then when the moon is showing off in the day time...I just love it!

    Oh Beti, I just love the blue of the Chicory in the early morning - that's a stunner! And the blue hydrangeas are super, too!!

    Oh, Beti, absolutely lovely - and I finally know how you call the Chicory (we have a very similar name, I will remember the English name now :) )... it's one of my favourite wild flowers. We always picked its flowers early in the morning for tea - I'll have to ask my mom what was she using it for (she's the homeopath in our family).

    You're not a meanie at all sometimes just the photos and some simple words are all that's needed, great shots!
