Photo Hunters: Blue

Blue is today’s theme! Oh my goodness, where do I begin?

This is my favorite kind of blue. I just love finding New York historic markers wherever we travel. I always try to stop to read them. But if I happen to miss one, I can always check online! The NYS Museum has a site dedicated to New York’s historic markers, organized by county. Check it out here if you want.

The next photo is not blue, but it made me FEEL blue this week! We had snow and BRRRR it was cold. I like winter, though, despite how cold it gets up here.

Which reminds me– I probably won’t be seeing any blue hydrangeas until July next year. *sob* That makes me feel mighty blue, in a sad way.

Lake Oneida in central NY is so blue. I’d read that bodies of water are blue because they reflect the color of the sky. So, if the sky was purple, then the bodies of water would be purple?

One of the most stunning vistas of blue and green was when we visited Fort Ontario, off the Great Lake, Ontario. I’d never before seen such a brilliant blue sky. The lush green grass made it sparkle like a jewel. You can read about our trip and see more brilliant photos here.

Finally, this is my darling kitten, Olivia. She had bright blue eyes as a baby, but her eyes are starting to change color. I hope they retain some of their blue color!

Just a little note to all the folks who visited my Photo Hunters last week– I didn’t get much of a chance to visit your blogs to see your photos last week, but I intend on clicking your links to see them this week! Thanks for dropping by!

How did your Photo Hunt go today?
