Searching for RoyGBiv: blue

"In the house of words was a table of colors. They offered themselves in great fountains and each poet took the color he needed: lemon yellow or sun yellow, ocean blue or smoke blue, crimson red, blood red, wine red." -Eduardo Galeano The Book of Embraces (one of my most favorite books)

Oops, I missed Blue last week! I love blue, so I just had to do this even though I am unfashionably late. I searched through my Instagram feed for blues.

    1. Thanks Mary! The street art here is pretty cool- it's always fun when I spot one of the Love Project's walls.
