Blue.....

Hello and Good morning!

Our prompt this week at Our Beautiful World has been chosen by Kirsty


The word is Blue... Kind of how I'm feeling ... It's wet and dull


The bird table is abandoned ... even the spider's web is vacant


The terracotta pots are chipped and worn


and a single Blue pansy looks out at the remnants of summer


The Blue swing chair where Ginger cat and I spent our summer relaxing is looking forlorn


By complete contrast let me share with you a couple of my brother's recent family holiday shots


Two little sparrows drying off after a dip in the 'oh so Blue' pool ...


On the Island of Kos ...


This is my kind of blue... I know where I'd rather be right now

Link up your kind of Blue at Our Beautiful World this week

Enjoy your day

The contrast between the UK and the Netherlands is quite big. We had a sunny weekend. But tempratures were not great. In fact; in my opinion it's cold :)
Love your take on this theme.Fab photos; I hope your brother and his family are having a wonderful time!
XXXXX

I'm so sad that you're feeling blue Ros. Your photos are wonderful. I'm sending you a great big old squishy hug. :-)

Oh no, truly blue in the full sense of the word Ros! The feeder does definitely look lonely and abandoned and the pansy on it's own is a bit soulful!
Though I have to say that the blue of the feeder is beautiful as is the beaded lacy web in it! and to me chippy paint is lovely, and so is that happy little face of the pansy....gorgeous indeed! The warmer times will come back for you and Ginger. :)
But oh my.....those colours in your brother's shots!! So vibrant and eye catching.

Hope you're feeling less blue by now. :) ♥

Your blue and my blue would be the same, Ros, however there is a place and time for everything, all the photo's are beautiful, my favorite from each group, the pansy and the birds after a drip in the pool! Have a wonderful Monday, even if it is dreary!

Blue is my absolute favourite colour Ros, so I am loving your collection today (and your brother's)! I think the dewdrops are gorgeous and remind me of Spring time! big hugs :)
