I never liked the color blue
until I learned to stay still.
blue found me unexpectedly.
#a waiting
the window of life ~ tinted
navy stilness;
crisp air
blue hour
calm sky
high contrast
still photography
This piece was inspired by Kasu (small wounds)’s writing invitation to pick a color and put meaning to it. I would have never thought of picking blue, and yet, it happened.
