Finding Blue

Once a month I have been joining Julie and Jennifer in the search for different colours of the rainbow.

It is time to search for BLUE.  



I found it in my daughter's high school graduation class
(she is at the end - one with the braid, not the scowl)



Muted blues show up in some of my creations



Or sometimes to help pop the red. 



Or in the presence of brown. 


Blue often shows up in nature.

 In the mountains and sky that  I see out my window.




And a beautiful blue in the glass my sister made from a bottle. 



But my favourite photo with blue is this one of my daughter taken 2 weeks ago at  her high school graduation.

    These are all lovely blues. I especially like your gorgeous book cover, the brown umbellifer (against snow?) and, of course your lovely daughter.

    Hi, kim - a memorable collection of blues - congratulations to you and Daughter on her graduation. That's a mile-stone, a 'fork stuck in the road' as Greenday sang... Happy Solstice!

    Congratulation to your daughter on her Graduation - she's beautiful. I'm glad she wasn't the one with the scowl. Lovely collection of blues - and the view from your window is breathtaking!

    I want to congratulate your family and your daughter on her graduation. She looks like a dreamer to me, so full of hope and plans for the future! I also love the glasses made from bottles! Does your sister ever sell these? I will quit bugging you now with so many comments, I just had to catch up!
