Back to the Crayford Marshes taken last November! To get the colour all I did was to add yellow by taking the blue away!
I have managed to wake up again at dawn today. Well, it has been one of the most spectacular mornings of the whole year. If you have some patience, you'll see something nice in the next days, one post per day takes the blues away ... :)

Mi sono svegliato ancora una volta all'alba oggi. Bene, è stata una delle mattine più spettacolari dell'intero anno. Se avrete un po' di pazienza, nei prossimi giorni vedrete.... Una foto al giorno, leva la tristezza di torno... :)

not sure what tree this is? found it while walking along the streets of DC during my trip there. adjusted tones and levels to bring out the light against these buds (or are they fruits?)

Train roll on, on down the line,
Won't you please take me far away?
Now I feel the wind blow outside my door,
Means I'm, I'm leaving my woman at home.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
My baby's gone with the wind again.
And I don't know where I'm going.
I just want to be left alone.
Well, when this train ends I'll try again,
But I'm leaving my woman at home.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
My baby's gone with the wind.
Train roll on
Tuesday's gone
Train roll on many miles from my home,
See, I'm riding my blues away.
Tuesday, you see, she had to be free
But somehow I've got to carry on.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
My baby's gone with the wind.
Some blueberries to chase the blues away. Blueberries are believed to be antioxidants as well. So grab a bowl and take as much as you can. There's more where they came from (our fridge hehehe).
Happy Monday Blues!
"Well I know, you know better, everything I say
Meet me in the country for a day
We'll be happy
And we'll dance
Oh, we're gonna dance our blues away
And if I'm feelin' good to you and you're feelin' good to me
There ain't nothin' we can't do or say
Feelin' good
Feeling fine
Oh, baby, let the music play
Whoa-oh-whoa, listen to the music
Whoa-oh-whoa, listen to the music
Whoa-oh-whoa, listen to the music
All the time
Like a lazy flowing river
Surrounding castles in the sky
And the crowd is growing bigger
Listening for the happy sounds
And I got to let them fly ..........................."

...yes, my fine flickr friends I am back on board ;) . I had a half day off work today and went down the beach - turns out what I needed was to jump in my beloved ocean and reboot. Ah I love it down there during the week - it is friendlier, more chilled, more space and then with the lovely soft autumn sun and the warm seas I was renourished. I brought my camera with me saying to myself 'its okay Rosie if you do not feel like taking any shots - just relax' - well I could not help myself , after getting in the water I was awash with mojo again.
Thank you all so much for your kind words yesterday and this week - it means so much. Murphys law of course that I get an explore for my shot yesterday too - perhaps Mr/Mrs. Explore read my post and gave me a mercy explore to pep me up . Have to go to bed early now as going to be Up and Adam tomorrow morning - have a lovely day/morning/evening everyone :) .

This frog was hopping around our King Sago Palm :)
I don't know what kind it is but sure was bumpy looking.... lol
*** Thank You, "Speech Path Girl" for the ID of the frog to be a "Cope's Gray Treefrog!" ***

Cope's Gray Treefrog ~
Wikipedia
The Cope's Gray Treefrog (Hyla chrysoscelis) is a species of tree frog which is found in the United States. It is almost indistinguishable from the Gray Treefrog, Hyla versicolor, and shares much of its geographic range. Both species are variable in color, mottled gray to gray-green, resembling the bark of trees. These are tree frogs of woodland habitats, though they will sometimes travel into more open areas to reach a breeding pond. The only readily noticeable difference between the two species is the call—Cope's has a faster paced, and slightly higher pitched, call than H. versicolor. In addition, H. chrysoscelis is reported to be slightly smaller, more aboreal, and more tolerant of dry conditions than H. versicolor (Martof et al., 1980). The range of H. chrysoscelis is more southerly—it is apparently the species found in the lower elevation Piedmont and Coastal Plain of Virginia and the Carolinas. In those areas, H. versicolor may be present only in the Appalachians (Martof et al. 1980). The Bird-voiced Tree Frog, Hyla avivoca, is similar to Hyla chrysoscelis/versicolor, but is smaller (25–50 mm length, vs. 32–62 mm for the Grey Tree Frogs).
My Frog Poem
I had a little jumping frog
I trained to come and go.
We enjoyed each other's company
and I often told her so.
She lived out in my garden,
in a clump of grass you see.
And she ate the bugs and insects
that often bothered me.
She was busy in the early morn,
a hopping everywhere.
Of helping keep my garden clean,
of pests unwanted there.
When the sun rose high,
she hopped for home,
this frog had done her best,
and stayed till the cool of the eve,
till the sun had gone to rest.
Then when evening came,
she roamed about,
a hopping here and there.
She croaked a funny little tune,
that made me be aware.
Of the beauty of God's creation,
in a garden that pleases me.
Of fruit and vegetables of every kind,
and this frog for company.
Take time to learn about nature,
and all that God has made.
Enjoy a little bit of heaven on earth,
in the outdoors every day.
It will keep you happy and healthy,
and chase the blues away you see.
A little bit of outside happiness,
is what every body needs.

........keeps the photographic blues away :-)
Saw this out of my kitchen window this morning, the sunlight streaming through the trees was just beautiful.
Have a great weekend you all!!!
Cayo Largo, Playa Maltiempo. Cuba.
10mm.
It's rainin' but there ain't a cloud in the sky
Must of been a tear from your eye
Everything'll be okay
Funny, thought I felt a sweet summer breeze
Must of been you sighin' so deep
Don't worry we're gonna find a way
I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Waitin' on a sunny day
Without you, I'm workin' with the rain fallin' down
I'm half a party in a one dog town
I need you to chase these blues away
Without you, I'm a drummer girl that can't keep a beat
An ice cream truck on a deserted street
I hope that you're coming to stay
I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Waitin' on a sunny day
Hard times, baby well they come to us all
Sure as the tickin' of the clock on the wall
Sure as the turnin' of the night into day
Your smile girl, brings the mornin' light to my eyes
Lifts away the blues when I rise
I hope that you're coming to stay
I'm waitin', waitin' on a sunny day
Gonna chase the clouds away
Waitin' on a sunny day
Aspettando Un Giorno Di Sole
Sta piovendo ma non c'è una nuvola nel cielo
dev'essere una lacrima dai tuoi occhi
tutto andrà bene
divertente, pensavo di aver sentito una dolce brezza estiva
devi essere tu che sospiri profondamente
non ti preoccupare stiamo per trovare un modo
sto aspettanto, sto aspettando un giorno di sole
per cacciare via le nuvole
aspettando un giorno di sole
senza di te, sto lavorando con la pioggia che scende giù
sono metà della festa in una città senza nemmeno un cane
ho bisogno di te per cacciare via queste depressioni
senza di te, sono un batterista ragazza che non può tenere il tempo
un furgoncino dei gelati su una strada deserta
spero che tu stia venendo per restare
sto aspettando, aspettando un giorno di sole
per cacciare via le nuvole
aspettando un giorno di sole
tempi duri, bambina bene verranno tutti a noi
certo come il ticchettare dell'orologio sulla parete
certo come il cambio della notte in giorno
il tuo sorriso piccola, porta la luce della mattina nei miei occhi
sbalza via la depressione quando mi alzo
spero che tu stia venendo per restare
sto aspettando, aspettando un giorno di sole
per cacciare via le nuvole
aspettando un giorno di sole

No Matter What
No matter what
I'm here
No matter what
I'll wait for you
Come with the wind
Oh, my love
come back soon
please
How long ago I've forgotten
why I stood
Away from you
Every moment
seems the worst one
Come with the wind
please
I know,I know
Who you are to me
No matter what
I'll wait for you

Thanks to christian webber for suggsting the title!
Like the ocean needs the moon to take the tides away,
all we need is a little time to chase the blues away
sun is out and it feels like its always the same,
let this last forever turn tomorrow into yesterday.
"i hear the train a comin'
it's rolling 'round the bend..."
went to the city today for the beginning of the tear down of my oh-so-beautiful store. hard stuff, but lots of amazing souls filled my heart today. we should be done tomorrow, which means i won't be taking those beautiful ferry rides as often. or staring at this train in edmonds.
"and i'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away....."
have you had bubble tea before? the kind with the tapioca pearls... yum! this is my bokeh interpretation on bubble tea... good for chasing the winter blues away.

nothing like a ice, cool drink to drive the blues away.
amazingly, shooting portraits with a macro lens wide open, coupled with a 1.4x TC, yields quite acceptable bokeh.
yum.
Lovely peonies, an old diary and a letter never written seemed like a pretty sight to send Monday blues away.
Happy start into the new week everyone!

Train roll on, on down the line,
Won't you please take me far away?
Now I feel the wind blow outside my door,
Means I'm leaving my woman behind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
My baby's gone with the wind.
And I don't know where I'm going.
I just want to be left alone.
Well, when this train ends I'll try again,
But I'm leaving my woman at home.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
Tuesday's gone with the wind.
My woman's gone with the wind.
Train roll on many miles from my home,
See, I'm riding my blues away.
Tuesday, you see, she had to be free
But somehow I've got to carry on.
Your problems just become
your stepping stone.
Catch the moment.
Ahhhhh, sooooo.

For this second version I made the sky orange so the photo stayed the same color all the way through. I've seen this technique before and liked it for the warm feeling it gives.
A Hypericum (St. John's Wort) flower from my back garden. St John's Wort is a well known herbal remedy for improving mood and emotional wellbeing and is often recommended in combatting depression and the effects of S.A.D. Wishing you all a happy, sunny Sunday. :-)
EXPLORED! Thanks to Everyone!
Taken on Saturday evening just before the fog disappeared. Yes, I know that sun is too hot and I know I shouldn't be shooting straight into the sun but it's my favourite shot! I've now heard that I should have used some sort of filter to burn away the fog...some day when I grow up. :) In the meantime I'll just have to keep shooting wild and hoping for the best. LOL
Happy Monday, Everyone. Hope this golden, blazing sunset helps to take the blues away.

The dancing gull dances the blues away... while his gull-friend watches from a distance!

Dancing Gull Productions 13.02.2009 - Summer Sunset Series
Shot a fair while ago, I was hanging off the top of Rocky Point at Torquay trying to avoid the giant "speed hump" of land that obstructs the shot unless you go for a pretty severe crop like I did with this image. The sunrise was about as good as I can ever remember and sat perfectly for nearly ten minutes, beautiful rich red colors in the clouds and deep blues away from the sun. The color cast was a bit of a bugger but a snappy adjustment layer calmed it down a bit.
I hope your Monday is not so blue :) Have a fantastic week everyone!!
This photo was taken at the Le Reve show at Wynn Hotel, Las Vegas which I watched last summer. It's one of the best shows I've seen, very entertaining.
Explore Front Page! Mondays are not so bad after all. Thanks everyone :)
And I wish I could wash all my weeping blues away
And watch them disappear on morning tide
So run honey run, hide in the wind
