I decided to try out True Color Thursday with the Cowspot Dogs at
http://truecolorthursday.blogspot.com
Today's color is Royal Purple. (I know today is Wednesday, Mommy still doesn't know how to schedule posts right. Gee Wiz!)
Here are the photos of things that are Royal Purple (or kinda Royal Purple in my case.)
Mommy has a Royal Purple mouthpiece for her Baritone Horn. I tried to play a note, butt nothing came out! How in the world does Mommy get sound to come out of that thing!
You can kinda see Mommy's reflection in the bell, butt Mommy says thank goodness you can't see her too well in the photo, because she was having a really bad hair day for this photo -- it was raining all day! :)
Here's a photo of some of the pysanky (Ukrainian Easter Eggs) Mommy keeps in her office. The bottom egg with the orange diamonds has a Royal Purple background color. (Mommy didn't make these eggs -- you should see the ones she tries to draw -- believe me, they don't look half as good as these! Mommy keeps the eggs she has drawn hidden in an egg carton in a top secret location -- she is so embarrassed of the ones she tried to make.)
Benji thought Miss Piggy is wearing Royal Purple shoes and gloves. I don't think it's really Royal Purple, butt we think it's Royal Purple enough for our blog post!
Finally, we have one flower that is blooming in our garden! It's February, and we are shocked to see a flower blooming already. Guess it's been such a nice winter so far with hardly any snow, the flower must be confused! The photo doesn't do it justice. The flower is a Royal purple color, but the photo makes it look more of a brighter shade of purple.
---------------------------
And we failed the last part of the assignment for True Color Thursday. We were supposed to take a special garden photo with a special prop that was provided on their blog -- let's just say, by the time Mommy got home from work and got her act together -- it was just too dark outside to attempt the photo. Oh well!
Have a great Royal Purple Day everyone!

P.S. Not sure if we will try our hand (I mean our paws) at every True Color Thursday, butt, we sure had fun with this week's Royal Purple Color.
I love your eggs. Wouldn't it be great to be able to do fine work like that. I don't think I have the patience.
ReplyDeleteThat first shot is so adorable.

The pysanky eggs are GORGEOUS~
ReplyDeleteI remember the first year my family tried to make them...they all turned out black! We are much better at it now, but no where near as nice as those.
That purple flower is beautiful! The first flowers of spring are so precious!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, a royal purple mouthpiece? Didn't know there was such a thing! :)
those were excellent finds !!! Mom remembers those eggs from years ago when she a demonstration of them being made.
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job with your purple day!

I have never seen a purple (or any color) mouthpiece! Of course I don't play brass so maybe I'm just not noticing. And the little purple flower? I know that when I've tried to photograph deep purple iris they always come out blue. Wonder why that is? When I was a kid I tried to make eggs like that, using the head of a straight pin for putting the wax on. It sure was fun. My mom kept those in the fridge for a long time, years, until they moved long after we were all adults. Brings back warm memories...
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty purple flower. Hope it doesn't get a case of frostbite!
