'macro': blue campanula flower

Today's words of the day don't really speak to me so I'm starting on tomorrow's. I also thought it would brighten up the morning, which is not only grey and still again, but also foggy. I found just a couple of these little flowers braving the weather close to the wall of the house in the front garden.
That is lovely Hazel, you could have just set fire to it and tagged it "Open Fire".

What a luscious color!

Good macro shot and lovely colour. At least you are finding some colour outside, There dosn't seem to be much in flower at all around here

@purplehaze12 I think I've exhausted all my outside colour now - except one front garden on our walk has a minuscule pink rosebud lingering on a bush but not sure I can make too much of it.

@judithg I think I've now realised the full impact of your 'grey in other ways' comment. Bon courage!

Amazing color and amazing that this is outside! Our weather is also gray and dismal.

Fabulous blue and excellent macro shot, well done, I love it.

@quietpurplehaze @judithg Dear Judith-- don't know what you're struggling with, but I share Hazel's good wishes for strength for you.

Wonderful flower shot! I can't believe you still have anything that looks like that outside in January.

@barbcapecod Thank you - I've just been moaning about family lurgy and my daughter going back to university...and it's also been very foggy!

Stunning color! Wow!!!!

Lovely and delicate and great close up. I am amazed that it's still in flower. Pretty colour.

Thank you everybody for looking and commenting. I could hardly believe it when I found this campanula in the garden as its normal flowering month is May! I'm realising more this year how I rely on flowers for inspiration - looking forward to summer and hoping it's not as soggy as the last one.
