Hi everyone, and welcome back to Evi's blog.
Evi's selected a great set of photo's this time round. She loves the camera that I bought for her last Xmas, a Nikon D3100, and just loves flashing it around Europe. Mind you, she hasn't sent me one single photo of her doing something exciting via email yet. Evi, you've been a slacker, most remiss of you, but I know your having just the most fab time of it all. Half your luck !!
Lets run through this weeks photo's and and see what I can make of them.
Looks like we have a beautiful honey bee scrumaging through the flower of a scotch thistle plant. They must be the most dreaded thistle of all. I remember cleaning out half a paddock of them last year.
The next photo looks like sage, but I can't be certain.
Next is the view looking from the rear of our property, out across some loverly green paddocks, and on to Mt Roland in the background. This mountain is 1234m high, and well worth the climb up if you think your feeling fit enough.
One of our great colour parties. L to R we have Shamir, Belz, Nina, Evi & Layla. We love to dress up in colour themes just for the fun of it, and revel around the house having yummy things to eat & drink. With lots of humour thrown in for good measure.
One of Evi's violet cups and teapots.
This photo is obviously some type of plant, but really wouldn't have a clue.
Looks like the flower of a "hearts ease" plant. I think my spellings wrong ??
One of fairy girls favourite dresses
Some beautiful birthday candles, can't remember what we used these ones for.
The most radiant passionfruit flower. Striking, yet peaceful.
Violet is the colour of good judgement. It is the colour of people seeking spiritual fullfilment. It is said, if you surround yourself with violet, you will have peace of mind. Violet is also a good colour to use in meditation.
Put some violet in your life if you want to
Use your imagination to it's fullest
Re-balance your life
Remove obstacles
Calm overactivity, and to re-energise from depression
Hope you've enjoyed the colour violet.
Love to all Stuy ...
Thanks Stuy for carrying on for Evi in her absence.
ReplyDeleteLove the narration Stuy and purple is my favourite colour. I find it a very healing colour too. It's interesting to see how people respond to me when I am wearing purple.

ReplyDeleteDoing a great job Stuy. Great purple colours
ReplyDeleteJust mucked up my link, sorry, should be http://landcare.blogspot.com.au/2012/07/violet.html. Those birthday candles are beautiful. Enjoying your words Stuy, looks like Evi is having an amazing time.
ReplyDeleteGreat violets and purples here! I'm sure Evi will be thrilled when she reads this post. I agree with everyone else - Stuy you are doing a great job! (Evi I'm sorry, but not too many violets and purples in my post). cheers Wendy
ReplyDeleteOh and my love forgot to mention that purple is my all time favourite colour!! Has been for years and years in all it's different shades and hues!
ReplyDeleteI'm just starting a mild flirtation with green in recent years especially mucky, dirty greens but purple will always remain the Best, I do believe. If you could peek into my wardrobe you'd see mostly shades of purple!!
Thanks Stu, you are doing such a fantastic job here ....... perhaps he should start a blog too?? Or maybe I'll make him guest writer on here every so often?!
What do you think?
That third picture blew my mind a little bit. What a landscape!
ReplyDeleteSnap! I have that teapot too! Purple is my favorite colour as well! I too have a wardrobe full of purple! And Stuy is doing a great job - a once a month post from his side of the fence would be facinating! I'd love to read it! - Kara xx
