Lots of blues but too few vowels, evening view of Aberystwyth, Wales. Seaside towns in the UK feel a bit sad off season, but this one, even with a young student population, seemed quite depressing at street level, nothing stood out in particular, just the general atmosphere, the dismal hotel room and the gloomy weather had an effect as well.
Happy final weekend of 2024 to everyone.
A llittle boat on a sparkling blue sea near Freshwater East, Pembrokeshire.
Bad case of Holiday blues now our trip is all over, hoping to returne to west pembs somewhen as I missed out a lot of great locations on this trip.

Another shot from earlier in the day at St Mary's Lighthouse, Whitley Bay, I spent ages waiting at this spot for people to disappear to get this one, I think it was worth the wait.
I was happy to hear they moved the Ice Castle to Breckenridge this year! It's such fascinating place with the color changing led lights inside the ice.
My entry in a local photo contest that got me into the semifinal...next round pending. The theme was "blue". Rocker base guitarist is Rick F., a friend of mine.

Milk drop collision..
So many drop shots out there, so I wanted to create a different look.

"Thank you very much for all your faves"
Taken about 20 minutes prior to the previous shot during the blue hour. My persistence finally paid off this morning.

Lewis's blue flax - Linum lewisii - was collected on July 9, 1806 in Montana by Lewis and Clark on their great expedition west. It was named for Meriwether Lewis and is a native perennial wildflower that's about thumbnail in size.
Various native peoples used flax for cordage and string, as well as for mats, snowshoes, fishing nets and baskets. The blue flax plant also had medicinal uses and was employed as a poultice for swellings, as an infusion for eye problems and gastrointestinal distress and as a wash for the body and hair. Sacagawea's Shoshone people used flax in this way. Several native tribes of the upper Missouri River region used flax seed as food because of its nutritive value and flavor.
... have to leave for some days - so long, dear friends
and thank you all for your visits, kind comments, faves and invites!
The Latin Bridge and the National Library, taken on the final night of my last trip before an early morning series of flights back home, almost a month later, these are still currently the last photos I've taken so far.

Coniston Water in Cumbria, England is the third largest lake in the English Lake District. It is five miles (8 km) long, half a mile (800 m) wide, has a maximum depth of 184 feet (56 m), and covers an area of 1.89 square miles (4.9 km2). The lake has an elevation of 143 feet (44 m) above sea level. It drains to the sea via the River Crake.
The lake was formerly known as "Thurston Water", a name derived from the Old Norse personal name 'Thursteinn' + Old English 'waeter'. This name was used as an alternative to Coniston Water until the late 18th century.
In the 20th century Coniston Water was the scene of many attempts to break the world water speed record. On August 19, 1939 Sir Malcolm Campbell set the record at 141.74 miles per hour (228.108 km/h) in Bluebird K4. Between 1956 and 1959 Sir Malcolm's son Donald Campbell set four successive records on the lake in Bluebird K7, a hydroplane.

Blue hyacinth for Happy Monday Blues
I adore the smell of hyacinths, the first perfume/eau de toilette I ever got and will love always was Vent Vert by Balmain, which was more than anything a haycinth smell.
P. de Gruyter Gasthuisstraat Tilburg, The Netherlands.
Design: Willem G. Welsing, 1933.
Once (1818-1976), 'De Gruyter' was a chain of 550 shops.
Their architecture and interiors were usually striking and luxurious. Now, this one is rentable office space.
T.P. Wilschut was the De Gruyter house architect (1928 to 1961 ) as a successor of W.G. Welsing (1906-1925).
