Plumbago auriculata (I), 10.21.25

I find this plant incredibly difficult to capture because of the color. When I see them on my walks I puzzle over them … blue or purple?! Really, I think it’s one of those in between colors that could be seen either way, depending upon the viewer. But I do try to create the image in the color I remember. Straight out of the camera (SOOC for those in the know) it appears quite blue, but, at least to me, there needs to be a bit of the purple thrown in. Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I need to walk back and have another look! And maybe, to you, this does just look like plain old blue. Do tell!

We took our first ever trip to see the colors in New England. It’s going to take some time for me to go through what I shot and what might be presentable. This first shot from my Canon camera (I have a few earlier things from the phone and the Fuji) is where I’ll start. We’ll see what else I come up with later.

I can’t say I’m thrilled with this shot, but I can say it’s a First Shot!
