This is the west end of Grand Cayman Island. The water here is amazingly colorful and beautiful.

While suffering from Monday blues, this icy blue composition with glacial reflection included serves as a pick-up.

Another of my Lilies for all of you who think you have blue Monday.....

Not me I am off today:-)))) have a fabulous week my friends!

Please view large

On my way to do some work.

Late night, so I will catch up tomorrow.

Here is a capture taken in Bar Harbor Maine earlier in the blue hour where I was able to try opening the aperture wide on the 24mm, go to ISO 250 and keep the exposure to around 8 seconds. With the slight chop in the water, this is about the total time to keep the shutter open and not have the boats docked there from moving.

 

Also, the White Balance here is around 5000K ... allowing for a nice balance I think between the blue hour sky and the warmer light from the town area lighting up the pier and boats.

The blues of the world's oceans may vary in intensity. One thing they do have in common is their beauty, which may be magnified by the reflection of the sun and the movement of waves.

As if Monday blues weren't enough :-)

Wish you all a fabulous Thursday!

Blue hour along Middle River on a calm evening.

Cool tones ruled the view this time of morning on the pretty river in Maryland.

Hydrangea Bloom. Thanks for the visit and have a great weekend.

I love the Oregon coastline! This was taken from Ecola State Park near Cannon Beach on my favourite kind of beach day - not at all hot :)

Yet another blue hour, yet another Norway photo, it's a very pretty town though, too bad the main viewing platform was closed for the season for no reason, resulting in a messy foreground of bushes, I can understand them closing the restaurant, but the viewing platform is just a flat concrete space. I cloned out a couple of cranes in the bottom right corner.

A shot from Newcastle quayside on Friday night there wasn't much reflection going on but still nice to be out . Thanks for looking

Zooming in on the 'Owl"-mural , I uploaded yesterday.

I don't know why but the title "Chasing the blues' just popped up in my head.

Zoomed in for this long exposure there in the early morning light. The Snake River was a peaceful place to be on this morning.

This term is ocupied much to negativ in my opinion. Sure, even in this photo, when I was waiting for the sunrise, everything seems to be a bit gloomy and the bright colours are all missing. Blue notes are influenzing everthing and giving the scenery a special mood. But blues doesn't have to be bad per se and more of this it doesn't have to be something, we need to be fear for. Its telling us to hold and to give more attention more to ourselves. That way it will be much easier to see the streak of light at the horizon what is assuring us, sun will rise again today as well.

 

Ich finde, dass dieser Begriff eindeutig zu negativ belegt ist. Sicher, auch hier auf diesem Foto, als ich auf den Sonnenaufgang wartete, erscheint alles noch etwas düster und es fehlen die leuchtenden Farben. Die blauen Noten mischen sich in alles ein und verleihen dieser Szene eine besondere Stimmung. Blues muss nicht per se etwas schlechtes sein und vor allem nichts, vor dem wir Angst haben müssen. Er fordert uns auf innezuhalten und uns selbst mehr Aufmerksamkeit zu schenken. Dadurch wird es leichter, den Lichtstreif am Horizont zu finden, der uns die Gewissheit bringt, auch heute wird die Sonne wieder aufgehen.

Блюз прибоя

Had to hunt through the archives for a dose of the blues.

A Blue Jay waits patiently for some seed to appear. These guys dominate the food chain on our lakefront, except for the squirrels of course!
