Hues of Blue- Focus on Life week 31

On the way to the post office (and the beer store)
Well, I have to admit, this was a bit last minute for me. I knew where I wanted to go and take photos, but totally forgot about it til just a little while ago. I've been roaming about a bit these last few weeks, and find myself in an apartment complex for the month- very close to some wonderful scenery. So I thought I'd treat you to a bit of a Hogwartian campus with a lot of cloudy blue sky. Wish I could show you all of the hues at once. And in the tradition of showing off my post office adventures, I'm including a photo of the scary suspension bridge I now have to walk across when I go to the P.O.
What the camera saw
I couldn't resist photoshopping a couple of these photos to accentuate the blue. When you're at the top of the town, the sky is very big, and everything seems quite vivid!
What I saw!

  See more wonderful blue hues while you listen to BB King sing the blues at Sally's Blog!
A bit of extra blue for you

Had to add this Nigella (Love in a Mist) as I know we all love our flowers!

The building is on the Cornell campus- I don't know the name. It is filled with cool stone buildings!

Oh that Nigella is just beautiful - I love the background you've photographed it against - stunning. That is one scary bridge and I can't think of anything that would make me walk over it - I really don't do heights and bridges!
