Photographer, Reader, Writer, Thinker, Dreamer
I bought my first SLR camera (a Yashica TL-ELECTRO) when I was 17 and imagined I would become a great photographer. My love of photography, unfortunately, was thwarted by a photo-journalism class (the first "C" in college, but not the last!) as well as several packages of accidentally exposed photo paper and the high cost of film on a student budget. An unexpected gift of a Canon Rebel xSI four years ago reawakened those old, dormant dreams. A bit wiser now, I knew that photog instructor was full of bs even if technically he was pretty good. I began snapping away and haven't looked back. Mostly, I shoot nature photography because flowers and rocks don't talk back at you when you pose them.

Anne, these are such beautiful blues, each of them within a different context but all so special!
Thanks, Patti.
I like the blue windows, They are unique.
As I looked at the photograph yesterday, I wondered why these windows were blue and what was the material — paint? some sort of cardboard? wood? I think I’ll need to go back to this building again and take closer notice of the entire building, which I think is vacant.
Just the little that shows in your photograph looks intriguing, bet there’s a really interesting history there. Let me know what you discover, Anne. xxx
These blues are wonderful shades of blue. Your macro on the iris and that tiny flower is awesome. :-)
IRL the iris was closer to purple than blue, but I didn’t have the white balance set properly. BUT, I loved the color it turned out!
Some nice entries for this week’s challenge.
Thanks, Colline.
And what a blue – what do you call it? Gentian Violet Blue, Robin Blue, Blue Bag Blue – that’s my favourite blue:)
Oh my! I haven’t thought of a name for that shade. It is a pretty one.
Pretty? Vibrant and arresting, in my books:)
Gorgeous colours.
Thanks for stopping by & commenting.

Very rich blues, I love the iris and the windows particularly! xxx Ailsa
I was surprised when I found the windows in my archive. I remember snapping shots of the old building, but I didn’t remember the windows. I took in the same day and in a close location to the grid-like structure, which was actually a guardrail on a stair.
these are lovely Anne – what is the first one…I love it
I have no idea! I took it early in the spring. Some sort of ground-hugging grass growing along the greenway trail.
Those are some blues!
My fav color! :-)
