Picture This 187 ~ Hues of Blue

Hello everyone, this is Danette (dp) and I am your hostess this week. For the challenge I have chosen Hues of Blue. Anything that has at least one shade of blue in the picture will work (more than one shade of blue is even better)! Below are my three interpretations of the theme. Have fun selecting yours!

My first photo is my youngest grandson:

Blue Eyes


The second is a lake near by home that is swampy and usually looks black, however in this photo the water looks blue due to the reflection of the sky:

Blue Deception

The last photo has a little less blue than the first two

  2. I love this theme! Blue is everywhere so I think it is an inspired choice. Your grandson's eyes are wonderful and reflect his little blue pants. I love the blue pond and the spider web catching the light. So many blues in your last one, and so much interest.

    Thanks, Mitchy, for using my bowl as photo of the week!

  3. Hi Danette!! Many thanks for hosting this week!! Great choice of theme, lots of possibilities!! Cute shot of your grandson, he seems to be saying "Hey, am I on Picture This??" LOL. Love that second shot, looks like a gator might go past at any moment :-)) Cool third shot. Rack 'em up!! I have loads of 'blue' shots, the problem will be deciding which ones to use!!

  5. That grandson of yours is just too beautiful!! Gorgeous little soul!
    Love the kind of littered feeling the shot of the lake gives ... I have a thing for blue doors ... not sure what, but I always find them rather inviting.
    A wonderful theme ...

  10. Good choice of theme, Danette! Adorable baby your grandkid is... I 'envy' his blue eyes... Love the tranquility and the blue sky reflection in the second, making it my favourite, though the the blue door in the third adds character to the building frontside.

  11. I can recognize this sweet little baby. :)

    The way you captured the blue in the lake, makes it so abstractly romantic.

    The third one is my favorite.

  13. Nice theme, Danette! Your grandson is a cutie! He reminds me of a little kewpie doll!

    Nice shot of the lily pads with the strand of spider web stretching across to the seed pod.

    Maybe a little less blue, but striking in it's contrast, on that last one.

    The baby is my fav!
