Colour Meme - Deep Blue.

[curiouswombat]

I have seen this on a couple of friend's journals - where they have been given a colour, chosen for them, by a friend - and you find ten pictures featuring the colour. As far as I can tell, they don't need to be your own pictures - just ten things you like.

binkaslibrary gave me 'Deep Blue'.

My Ten Deep Blue Somethings are


Deep blue always makes me think of the sea - here is Douglas Bay in the winter -




And sometimes of the sky -



And then of my church -



I love the deep purpley blue of some flowers -



And the colour of light through blue stained glass -



And then there was the deep blue of my wedding bouquet -



Deep blue makes me think of sapphires -



And this, because I like it -



It is a square mandala by someone called Paul Heussenstamm.

Always JBJ made me this lovely Banner for Return of the Key -




And finally - Deep Blue Something!





If you would like to join in just say so and I'll give you a colour.

Great list - yep, I'll play!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Hurrah! I think I will give you cream/white - it seems right for you, somehow.

[shirebound]

Ohhhhh, lovely! I especially love that ocean pic.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thank you. It is hard to avoid pictures of the sea when you live on a small island!

[brutti-ma-buoni.livejournal.com]

Love this meme! Those things together make a great collage.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thank you - they would, actually, wouldn't they?

Would you like a colour, to join in?

[brutti-ma-buoni.livejournal.com]

I'd like one to ponder. *g* Trying to do far too much remix tonight so some pictures might be a welcome break!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Gold... Although not necessarily shiny and metallic.

[binkaslibrary.livejournal.com]

Great, really great photos! Loved the sea especially, but all of them make a lovely reply :) Thanks!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked the selection.

[clodia-metelli.livejournal.com]

That's a gorgeous selection of blues. If you give me a colour, I'll play! or try to, at least.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Yay! Purple for you, I think.

[clodia-metelli.livejournal.com]

Purple! Oh dear, I wonder how many purple pictures I have lurking on my harddrive? Not too many, I suspect. We'll see...

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

I don't think they have to all be your own. Or you could have silvery grey instead...

[cairistiona7.livejournal.com]

Oh, those are lovely... I love those shots of the sea. And deep blue does seem to suit you!

I'll play, although it may take a while to get the post pulled together. But something fun and non-stressful like this appeals to me at the moment.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I'll stay away from water shades and mud brown. How about dark green?

[cairistiona7.livejournal.com]

Ooh, I think I can manage dark green!

*goes off to look through scrapbook*

[estelcontar1.livejournal.com]

Beautiful choices.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

[engarian.livejournal.com]

Very nice choices, Curious.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

[syderia]

Pretty !!

I'd like a color, please.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thank you. How do you feel about peach colour?

[wormwood-7.livejournal.com]

I love the blue, blue sea :)
I think I'd like a colour.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Blue was a really good colour for me. I see you in my mind's eye as shades of green - and so I give you green.

[wormwood-7.livejournal.com]

That is a good colour.

[zanthinegirl.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I can sort of see that!

And I'd love to play!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Jade green, I think.

[ningloreth.livejournal.com]

I love the stained glass picture.

I'd like to play too!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

It's lovely, isn't it? Not mine - I had some nice dark red but no dark blue.

A colour for you? White.

[fileg.livejournal.com]

ok, I need prodding to keep posting, so I'll play too

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Hurrah! Silver grey for you, I think.

[bojojoti.livejournal.com]

I'll pass on the meme to avoid feeling guilty if I don't get around to doing it!

I love the blue of the stained glass. It's so very beautiful.

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

It's beautiful stained glass, isn't it? Not one of mine - I had some nice dark red but no dark blue. But more beautiful than any of our little churches have anyway!

[ukamikanasi.livejournal.com]

That blue stained glass is insanely gorgeous. Can I have a color? (Or even a colour!)

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

It's lovely, isn't it?

A colour - deep pink, I think.

[miso-no-tsuki.livejournal.com]

The "Dark blue" obviously suited you! The stained glass picture is very impressive. Did you "pointillise"it?
Sea and Sky never fail to be arresting.
Flowers!
Sapphires!(Give me brilliant-cut rather than cabochon though.)
Ooh and you wore a hat too! (My wedding bouquet had Violets, Camellias and Lily-of-the-Valley with pale green leaves; all silk as one of my bridesmaids would have sneezed her way down the aisle if I'd had real flowers!)
Awesome!
Gives you this http://www.space.com/11334-spectacular-aurora-march-2011.html

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Hello - how lovely to see you.

The stained glass isn't one of mine - I found it on-line and just liked it - I think it is as is.

My flowers were silk, too - and my hat was very much of its time - one of those shallow elongated bowlers, with a big net bow on the back and a hint of veil - I loved it on sight!

And thank you for the link - absolutely beautiful!

[milurie.livejournal.com]

Oh, those are wonderful!

May I have a colour, please?

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

Thank you - and of course you may - how about dark green?

[talesofsnape.livejournal.com]

Hit me!

[curiouswombat.livejournal.com]

I was going to say emerald, but actually I think your colour should be black. Add as much white as you like... (Or any other colour to highlight, of course!)

[talesofsnape.livejournal.com]

Ooooh! I shall have to have a play tomorrow
