Blue

An old barn with a couple of sheep caught my eye in Ribchester this afternoon.
I actually drove past & turned round when I caught the lovely blue of the paint work.
There were two sheep inside, I'm not sure why perhaps they were due to lamb...it was a lovely afternoon although it had rained hard earlier.

Three good things:
1. Lots of daffodils along the roadsides.
2. I was very naughty & consumed a chocolate éclair at my friends this afternoon.....not good for the gall stones I admit but it was a one off!
3. Driving my car again...I do love to drive!
Gorgeous colour and matching gate. I had a little choux thing at the hockey post match tea and discovered the filling was strawberry flavoured 0 apparently my face was a picture - not unpleasant exactly but not quite right.

A wonderful blue which contrasts stunningly with the stone barn. I really love this shot, and see they have painted the gate the same colour!

Great picture with the old brick and slate roof as well as the bright coloured door. Makes a statement - though what it says, I don't know!

The blue is beautiful against the texture of the brick. (I remember you said you liked driving!)

@judithg Choux has to be chocolate surely...not convinced I would like strawberry myself but i do love choux pastry.

I love that bright blue set against the brickwork.

Nice shot. What a wonderful old building. The blue door really stands out. Is that a slate roof?

That blue is really shouting out

I love the colour here. I can see why you would have to stop and shoot it.

Lovely composition and what a gorgeous door. If I had a list of favourite doors, that one would shoot straight to the top! Fav.
