Yesterday was as grey as the day before and probably as grey as it will be today! What to do to brighten things up! For me it was a trip to the wholesale flower markets! What do you do when you take a shot you like but no part of it is sharp and clear.. art it up and blur to the max, it's all about the colour right :) It's the first time I've been to the wholesale flower markets, it was so worth it value wise..
I came home with the beautiful red/orange tulips below for so much less than I would have paid in a florist shop.. can't wait until they go all sculptural :) Happy Thursday, take care and stay safe... P.s. last shot to show you exactly how grey it was 😉
Beautiful and cheerful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers and of course it's the colour that matters!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea there was a flower market in Perth Grace.
Love the brilliant colours PDP.
ReplyDelete...rain, you got your wish.
ReplyDeleteGentle shots.
ReplyDeleteI like your art pic, Grace! ;-)
ReplyDeletePerfect for a gray day.
ReplyDeleteThe vase holds the tulips perfectly. A bit more than grey. It looks like it is pouring down.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly know how to brighten up a gray and rainy day! Gorgeous flora!
ReplyDeleteLovely colours, maybe visiting our local markets is something I need to do, it's been pretty dismal here.
ReplyDeleteThose tulips......
ReplyDeleteLooks like an excellent way to spend a grey day. My word, that looks more like Perth, Scotland than Perth, WA!
ReplyDeleteThis could become a happy habit!
ReplyDeleteI love the smell of florists and flower marts, even the floral department of a supermarket. Throw in flower color and beauty and you've got an instant lift. (Is that a Deco mirror behind your tulips? Very nice!)
Hmmm, I do not know which pic I like best... thinking of Perth it´d be the last one (one can dream, no?)!
ReplyDeleteJust came back after watering with the 6th can of water, blue skies and ... Oh! Don´t jinx it, right? The tulips look wonderful and I agree - blurry or not, the colors matter - always!!
Flores bonitas para um dia cinzento e chuvoso.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e continuação de boa semana.

Flowers make your day with this miserable weather.
ReplyDeleteI wish that "Anonymous" would comment on how he REALLY feels! Perhaps if he was able to accompany you to this beautify flower market, he might become more mellow. Certainly wish that there would be one here that is comparable to yours!!
ReplyDeleteOh! Beautiful shots!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd 'blur to the max' !!!!! Artistic! ... :)
Beautiful shots, I loave all colourful flowers and the tulips are exceptional. Take care Diane
ReplyDeleteI'd say you've done a perfect job of brightening a grey day. Those flowers are magical.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers. Loved the rain shot :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful floral collage, Grace !
ReplyDeleteDo you always drive by car without using the windscreen wipers? :-))
Beautiful! I love the orchids. I used to work at a flower shop and got to go the wholesaler occasionally...I would take my time lol. I am a fan of mokara orchids, they are so neat.
ReplyDeletethe first image seems a painting.. very nice! ew
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely colorful!
ReplyDeleteFlowers brighten everything!
