Searching for Roy G Biv III: Blue Update #3


It's the third Thursday and this month the search brings us to the color BLUE.

A trip to Old Town Alexandria, Virginia and a walk along King Street I found BLUE everywhere...


Where did you find BLUE this month?

Join in our colorful blog hop! Post up to 5 BLUE photos and leave a comment here or on Jennifer Coyne Qudeen's blog. I'll continue to update this post through Saturday, May 17th.

Looking forward to seeing lots of BLUES!
Check out my partner-in-Roy, Jennifer's BLUES that run the gamut from kiddie coaster to luscious threads.
Jill at Recycled Daze has some sky BLUES (I'll be visiting Monticello next week!).
Maya at Million Little Stitches has Vishnu BLUES.
Fiona at Paper Ponderings has transportable BLUE.
Liz Davidson is dreaming in BLUE.

Lisa at arzigogolare spent a day looking up at ever-changing BLUES.
Susan at Flying Dog Studio has Seattle BLUES.
Sharmon Davidson has some breath-taking BLUES.

BLUE is a go-to color for artist, Mary Ann at Blue Sky Dreaming (it's even in the name of her blog!)

Margaret at Charlton Stitcher has some gentle ocean BLUES.

 Joan sent along this beautiful night sky BLUE. A friend of hers took this photo (shared with permission) called, Moon Shadow.


Next month it's INDIGO on Thursday, June 18th.

    1. The cobalt blue glass is from a collection I have. The sky blue display of glass was just a happy find. Thanks for playing along this month.

  3. Wow - I love what's going on with the glass, Julie! And the rest of your stroll was great fun - amazing how many shades you found. Will King Street forever make you think of blue, or did your camera catch other colors as well?!
    Thanks once again for the inspiration to see what happens when you focus on a certain color...

    1. I'm fortunate that a walk through Old Town Alexandria always yields interesting color finds. Blue was a cinch...Indigo...well that might be a bit tough! Loved all your sky photos.
