Le Ciel



I think I finally captured it.

 For some reason , probably known to real photographers, it is almost impossible to photograph the true color of the sky in the south of France.

 It could be described as a periwinkle blue or in french" bleu violet."  I almost have it in the left hand side of this photo.   At any rate, it is a breathtaking blue.  We are a bit spoiled and tend to take it for granted down here.  Don't do it.

  2. Thanks, "eyeliquor", coming from such a great photographer, that is high praise. Maybe the saturation is too intense, but I think I got the color.
