Purple Sea

July 11th, 2008

I took about a dozen different shots at different angles trying to get this one just right. I never really caught it like I wanted to. This one comes close. The sad twig hanging down is pretty good, but it kind of gets lost in the background.

The purple are tiny petals that have fallen off the flowers above. There was a lot of purple. Both Prince and Donny Osmond were trying to outbid one another. o

    Very nice shot. When you look at the picture larger, you can see the twig really well.

    And I thought I was the only one that knew Donny Osmond loves purple :)

    Alright, I now have a NEW favorite.
    I am such a pushover for purple and green. I adore this photograph.

    Will this one go up on Etsy??

    Jon, I hate to bother you, but I went to read George’s blog and my AVAST! told me that the site was trying to download something malicious to my computer.

    Maybe you could help him with that?

    Thank you.

    Oh, and I love the colors in this picture!

    This is a comment about the Granville Island Skull. Is it graffiti? I need to know a little bit more about it if you have the time. I love my print. It is perfect, thanks so much.

    Kind of ethereal. In an earthly sort of way. Like!

    Wow — anything that reminds me of Donny Osmond and his purple socks gets a big thumbs up! I am remembering correctly that he once jumped through a piano in those purple socks (on the Donny and Marie show?)
