July Mosaic

So, it's the last day of July, a month of pale blues.  I'm pleased with this month's pictures, I think there's quite a nice variety and I haven't even had food to fall back on - didn't have any blueberries!  I used Hipstamatic a lot as the lens/film combination I used is particularly good at blues so it was often the easiest way to shoot.  I did miss one day, I can't remember why now, but I don't think I had a very good reason.  That's two days I've missed so far.  You can see all of the pictures here on Flickr.

Sneakily shot in my rear view mirror on the way to yoga tonight.  I didn't realise there was blue sky as well.  Bonus.

Back home from Skye, didn't leave the house all day, so reverted to the old favourite painting on the terrace which conveniently has almost all colour in it and is good in an emergency!

June365 Mosaic

Here is the mosaic view of my pictures for June, a month of orange.  Hard work, this one, June saw us on holiday in Cornwall for a week (which is where the missing day happened, actually we on an eight hour drag back home in the car and I totally forgot to take a picture).  It was the month where I embraced Hipstamatic and Instamatic on my iPhone.  not a bad collection overall, but not the best so far. 

Next month, July, will be pale blue.
