CMMC: February Calypso (ocean) Colors

This week I’m back with a post for Cee’s Midweek Madness Challenge👍I was once again surprised at the colour pallet so some things that I wouldn’t have thought of including will make it in. Also there’s what passes as Ocean colours in the UK’s coastal waters😅

Let’s start with something that isn’t controversial…

…The blue of the Atlantic Ocean churned up by the propellers of a ferry.

In the UK, the colour is more likely to be what I jokingly call ‘Tilbury Tint’…

…as illustrated by the tidal River Thames at West Thurrock.

Arriva, outside of London, paint their vehicles in a shade of blue that fits this week’s colour requirement. In fact, they used to use two shades as in the example below…

…A Plaxton bodied DAF passing through Elstree.

Finally, here’s a section of a mural on the Metropolitan Railway bridge at Kilburn…

CMMC – April Pick a Topic from my Photo

Cee has given us a wealth of possibilities to select from her photo in this Midweek Madness Challenge. Some of those suggested are; ‘house, attic, porch, star, trees, ladder, window, door, blue,’ I think we can find some shots to fit with those👍

Firstly, here’s an old shot from a visit to the south of France – That’s a very large ladder!..

I guess we’d better have some blue – Here’s some Bluebells taken yesterday at the local nature reserve…

How about some stars on a window blind?..

Finally, a Blue train…

…and a Blue bus…
