La prima neve giunge sulle Dolomiti della Valle del Boite, in questi tempi, nel mese di novembre. In una notte o in un giorno grigio e uggioso, la montagna si trasfigura ed assume un aspetto magico. Candidi veli ne avvolgono i dirupi, ma a stupire l'osservatore umano non è solo quello, ma il blu assoluto con cui, lo stesso candore, tinge indirettamente il cielo ..... ..
La Scilla peruviana, pianta mediterranea nonostante il nome, regala sempre emozioni a primavera. La sua corona di fiori blu è infatti una meraviglia ..... ..
The old adage of if you don't succeed try, try again is well known to those shooting landscapes and cityscapes. We've all encountered the time when the weather, the sun, the clouds, the city lights, or maybe all of the above just don't want to cooperate when you're trying to get that perfect shot. If we're lucky we get to go back to try again and hope the next opportunity turns out better.
That's the story of this beautiful area along False Creek in Vancouver overlooking Science World and BC Place stadium. I was hoping to get a decent blue hour shot here and luckily was in Vancouver for 4 days which allowed for multiple attempts. On the first attempt the rain came pouring down right around when sunset was supposed to be through blue hour. The second attempt I was very hopeful. It was Victoria Day, a major holiday in Canada, and the weather was going to be wonderful! My hopes were up dreaming of fireworks and the Science World dome with amazing lights... only to find no fireworks and most of the dome lights off with only a small section in red... Luck was on my side on the 3rd try with the dome fully lit with a cool purple! Eureka! Third time turned out to be a charm :)

BLU (Bleu)
Je t’ai écrit une lettre en bleu
C’est une lettre sans début ni fin.
Elle est écrite en bleu silencieux
C’est une lettre sans frontière
Immatérielle comme nos humeurs
Insaisissable comme ces lumières lointaines
Je t’ai écrit une lettre en bleu nuit
C’est une histoire rêvée, ressentie
Elle se lit les yeux fermés dans l’air du soir
Comme un souvenir aux nuances de bleu
qui s’évade sans jamais mourir
Liras-tu ma lettre en bleu?

Blu (Blue)
I wrote a letter in blue;
This is a letter without beginning or end.
It is written in silent blue;
It is a letter without borders,
Immaterial as our moods,
Elusive as these distant lights.
I wrote a letter in night blue.
It is a story of a dream, felt,
That you read with your eyes closed, in the evening air,
As a remembrance of the shades of blue
that escape without ever dying.
Will you read my letter in blue?

Woke up this morning blues around my head
No need to ask the reason why.
I'm stepping out.
