Shades of blue

One of the best things I did over Easter was climb Mt Maunganui with my boy. He was keen as mustard, and clambered up like a mountain goat while I puffed damply behind him.

Fortunately, I 'had' to keep pausing to take photos.

Up the top.

So much beauty, so much blue.

It reminds me of one of my favourite things - a ceramic shell by potter Royce McGlashen. I suppose I could use it for a salad bowl, but it's so beautiful that its function in this house is to be beautiful.
