Detroit Leaning
It's all about blue today. It's a good safe hue for me. It's the sky. It's the sea. It's just me. As in azure, baby blue, beryl, cerulean, cobalt, corporate blue, cyan, indigo, midnight blue, navy, Prussian blue, robin's egg blue, royal, sapphire, sky blue, slate, steel blue and more. I find it strong. I find it calming. I find it secure. I hear it's a good color for bedrooms. It's soothing. It's even been known to keep evil spirits away. They say colors have meaning for us. I don't know about that. For me, it comes down to this. Blue is a simple color in all its shades. It's me.

It is a good colour, a useful colour. I prefer though something warmer.
ReplyDeleteit's such a beautiful photo with the black lines and that blue!
ReplyDeleteBlue is a great color. Green leaves me confused.
ReplyDeleteLike Picasso, I, took, went through a blue phase in my home, but it's all been changed now. It's an easy colour to use for decoration.
ReplyDeleteOooh, love that blue, very cool shot. So many shades of blue, some cool, some warm, some sad, some happy. . .
ReplyDeleteje prefere le bleu de klein ;)) on dirait une peinture
ReplyDeleteRed is my favorite color, but blue is nice as well. This is a lovely shade. Too bad we are not seeing it much here. We've been plagued with rain and gray skies. :(
ReplyDeleteI fondly remember my school-days crayon Prussian blue. Thanks for reminding me!
ReplyDeleteYou've captured a beautiful shade of blue here.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget cobalt blue. I have read that 90 percent of the collectors of blue and white pottery are men. BTW, visit me tomorrow for some more Detroit blue . . .
ReplyDeletea gorgeous photo and lovely descriptions...
ReplyDeleteSo what's your favourite colour Birdman haha! I'm with you on the blue, it's fresh and it's crisp clean..
ReplyDeletei think blue is the most popular colour around although I love red! Blue things always sell the best.
ReplyDeleteLove the shade in this pic. I have been wanting to paint the ceiling of my front porch, "haint blue". Keeps the haints away...or so they say in the south.
ReplyDeleteI'm green.
ReplyDeleteBlue is the best color ever.
