Weekly Photo Challenge: Unexpected

We saw this wonderful sight at the coast of Sri Lanka. One rarely gets to see a blue whale so close. We were told to be quiet  and having listened to the captains orders;  the whale came to check out our boat.  It swam around and under our boat, so we were able to see it up and close –  It was impressive!

Weekly Photo Challenge: The Hue of You

For this challenge,  keep it simple:  share a photograph with a prominent color (or assortment of colors) that reveals more about you. It could be a symbolic, meaningful shade; a color that expresses how you currently feel; or a combination of colors that excites you and tells a visual story.

Something warm, something cold –  Romantic and old-fashioned , plain and new, that me.

Sadunomainen / Fairy- tale

I had to think about this one. Two of the pictures not Macros but  – something fairy-tale like is in them – or movie so I had to include them just for the topic

The main photo is as Macro as can be – it is a very close up of a lichen ( jäkälä) only thing I’ve done is enhanced the colors
