Nothing Blue About Blue









The poor color BLUE.. for so many years it has been used in sentences, song titles,even the "something old and something blue" ritual for a wedding.


We say ,"I'm feeling BLUE" which really means im sad, im lonely.. im just not feeling right.






If you click on the picture of the last turtle it will enlarge.. There is NOTHING like that blue...






I think i will Have to change my vocabulary..





There is NOTHING Blue about the oceans color Blue!

Hey there Island gal
Blue along with green has always been my favorite colours, mainly cause its the colours of nature.

I'm going to be away on holiday for the next 2 weeks, so I want to take this opportunity to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I have done forward posts on both my blogs but wouldn't be able to comment for obvious reasons.

It is strange that such a beautiful and vibrant color has become associated with sorrow.

How could anyone feel sadness when looking at these pictures?

Blue and green have always been my favourite colours. Even when I deliberately try to get away from them, I always end up back with some shade of it. Like choosing material to have my lounge furniture covered. I deliberately took something not blue or green and once the job was done, the one colour that stood out was green - lol. I guess I am just a blue/green gal.

The Splash

Image
The water in the Bay has calmed down enough for me to swim into the big cave at the bay. I enter the crystal clear water of a little bay that's sits within the Big bay and made my way toward the cave. The tides are still high, the ocean not quite ready for the low low tides of summer. I enter the big cave that is still partially filled with water. The tide is pushing me in and out of the cool cave like a ride at the carnival! In and out... in and out of the cave, all the while I'm trying like crazy to get a picture from the inside of the cave looking out. It was on my 20Th trip with the tide back into the cave that I heard the splash behind me. Now, for me a splash behind me causes my heart to immediately start racing. Why? well when sharks feed they have a certain tail movement that causes a splash. I hear the splash and my brain goes into overdrive, "LANI", my brain screams, "DON'T look back,just swim to shore".. i feel my legs getting weak.. "LAN...

Swims with Scissors

The weather here on Oahu has been yucky for the last week so I was surprised yesterday the 15th to see that the breezes had returned , the sky was blue and when i checked the surf report the waves on the North shore had calmed way down. I ventured down to the turtle rock i had been having so much fun at. I had seen the turtle below on my first day at the turtle rock. He had gotten snagged in fishing line and it was all over his neck, head and flippers. It so upset me I got out of the water, hurried into the bustling, little beach town of Haleiwa, to get the number to the turtle hot line here on the island. When i got home I threw a pair of first aid scissors in my beach bag and made a mental note that if I saw a turtle who was in trouble I would do the best i could to help. I am not a professional and I know that good intentions are not always enough. You have to KNOW what you are doing. I could hurt a turtle more than help it so i needed to use my head. He was at the rock yesterday an...
