Pink it is
Today’s Beyond Layers prompt is the color pink. With this shot I have to give most of the credit to my friend Michelle, the same one who stopped by to visit Stella on Sunday and gave me the idea of the yarn/nest/suet project. When I wrote yesterday doubting that I would do well with photographing pink Michelle texted me and said, “How about Stella’s tongue!” Perfect. I had to take Stella on a 4 mile walk to make sure that tongue stayed visible.
The magnolias started to open today. I’m not sure which variety this magnolia is but I tend to call it a tulip magnolia. I’m pretty sure I’ll be taking many more photos of this beautiful tree.
The hyacinths are not fully open so the scent is not yet filling my front yard, soon.
I don’t own many items of pink clothing so when I woke this morning I had an ah ha moment (before coffee so it was real good), my pj’s are pink! These are, of course, my Red Sox pj’s and in the blur you can see my new rhinestone flip flops purchased in Ft. Myer’s, Florida at the new Red Sox JetBlue stadium. This warm weather that we are presently having makes me want to watch baseball but the real season hasn’t even started yet, 15 more days.
I *love* your unique take on pink. Stella’s tongue is perfect! What a great idea.
Thanks! I wasn’t sure whether or not some people would find the tongue unappealing. lol
You did it! I knew you would. 🙂
Of course, Stella’s tongue is AWESOME. She is such a beautiful dog. Love the magnolia too…so pretty against the pale blue sky.
Hubby went to FL for Red Sox Spring Training, too! However, HE didn’t come back with rhinestone flip flops… 😉
No? Not even for you?
Nope! Not even for me. Got himself a T-shirt, tho. Go figure. 😉
I’m going to have to go with the pink Red Sox jambos and blue toenails today.
Yeah, that and the dog are my favorites but then again I’m emotionally attached to both the dog and the Red Sox.
You found pink! 🙂 I don’t think I own anything pink either…just not my color.
LOVE the magnolias! They’re very rare around here, but we have plenty of the Southern Magnolia.
We are sisters in our detachment to pink! I’ve always joked that my lack of passion for pink is why I had two boys. lol
You know what? I DO own something pink…..my big fat pink bathrobe! I don’t know HOW I could forget that!! LOL
In my defense…it was a gift, I didn’t buy it myself 😉
Go SOX! I can barely wait for the season to begin.
Love your pink choices – Stella’s tongue is a lot of fun! I can’t believe the blooms you’ve got already, ‘specially since you’re only a few miles away!
Did you watch tonight’s game? It ended in a tie. You must have tons of blossoms after today. Isn’t this weather unreal?
These are wonderful shots, and what perfect focus on Stella.
Thanks so much!
