Two on Tuesday

Two pictures, that is. Both from my archives but unpublished until now. The first one is a soft shade of blue for Anna Carson’s Project Blue. A souvenir from Southern France.



The following picture was taken from the ground up and it's a souvenir from Genoa, Italy for J Fargo's from the ground up : a ten day project revolving around the idea of shots, objects, and actions that come from the ground, up.


I've realized that I have quite a few pictures which fit this theme. Unfortunately the 10 days are over... Time flies when you are having fun! Thanks to JFargo for such a fun project and to the participants for their visits!

  2. That door looks like something from the past -- almost a memory of blue ...

    And the building detail is stunning. Lovely sharing, as usual!

  8. Mar, You have such an eye for photography. As always, both photographs are great. There is something about the blue one though that really gets to me. I can't come up with the words to describe why I respond to it so much but I do.

  9. The blue door is wonderful, but it's the leaf shadows that make it for me! Spectacular shadow details.

  13. Mar..I adore the shutters! I feel like I should be walking down a cobblestone path when I pass them :)

    Your ground up today is a perfect finish...gorgeous!

    Thank you for all your nice comments and I have had so much fun doing this with everyone :)

  14. Both beautiful, but that first one has my heart. I love everything about it. Like others, I have an affection for old doors and shutters. I also just LOVE shadows and the shadows here are like a painting. And then I love that little yellow flower down in the bottom left that goes almost unnoticed but still managed to assert itself. My, I'm rambling. I really like that photo.
