Several memes.

 

Sorry to say I don’t have much inspiration these days.  Maybe a bit of the winter blues.

The weather is a lot better, we are going to get frost and sunshine in  the next days. Maybe I can get out and make some photo’s then.  I haven’t had a chance yet.  Because of that I am using photo’s from my files . I made these more than two years ago so you probably will not remember them.

Ben al blij dat ik niet de enige ben met de 'winterblues' ;)
Al ging het vandaag al heel wat beter nu het zonnetje zich hier wel liet zien!
Ik wens je een heel mooi weekend verder, liefs, Sonja

Gelukkig blijft de regen nu even weg en met de gladheid schijnt het ook mee te vallen...weer om er lekker op uit te gaan en mooie foto's te maken!

Fijn weekend, Riet! Lieve groet, Ingrid

Juliëtte said...

Iedereen heeft wel eens een winter dipje hoor!
Maar je foto's zijn, zoals altijd, weer erg mooi!

Veel liefs!!

It's uplifting tosee these little bright colored flowers! Right now all we have is a lot of snow- but we do have those sunny days with the beautiful mountains all around us!

Sylvia K said...

Living in Seattle, I do so understand "gray weather blues"!! Great shadow shots regardless of when they were taken, Riet! And I do hope you get some sunshine soon! We're actually have some today and it's amazing how it lefts ones spirits!! Have a good weekend!

Pamela Gordon said...

Great photos Riet. I like the bicycle. It's nice to see summer photos. :)

June said...

I love your blues tonight Riet. Just the perfect shade too. I think that hue is one of my favorite blues, especially in the garden.
I hope you are well and I am thinking of you a lot this winter.
Much love from me...

Lynne said...

Great photos and they are a "first time seeing" for me!

Je foto's zijn weer fleuriger en kleuriger dan het weer van vandaag. Het zonnetje heeft grote moeite om hier af en toe even door de bewolking heen te prikken, maar ik houd hoop op een mooie en fotogenieke winterweek.

Aritha V. said...

Mooie foto's. Ik hoop dat je gauw weer zin krijgt!

Dianne said...

your photos made me smile :)

Maude Lynn said...

I love all the blue!

Zimbabwe said...

These are great photos. I am also seriously lacking in inspiration with this cold and dreary weather at the moment. Keep well Diane

Vee said...

How funny! My photos are from two years ago as well. (There's nothing go on out there...not even snow so what's a gal to do?)

Love the blues...and that blue bike is wonderful!

eileeninmd said...

Riet, I love your all blues and photos. I am feeling much the same here. I am blaming it on the weather. Sunny weather should makes us all feel like going out and taking some new photos. Have a great week ahead.

In Pynakker te Nederland staan identiek dezelfde huizen.

Groetjes,

Lorrie said...

Your photos add some cheer to this dark January evening. I think we are all a bit 'blue' these days after the brightness of the holidays. Now winter is truly settling in. I hope the bright sunshine cheers you up.

It's nice to look back and pretty photos when winter sets in! Happy Monday!

Luna Miranda said...

i'm posting a photo from my archive, too.:p love the bike and the pretty flowers.

Lots of interesting blues in your post. Cool bike :)

Vintagesouthernlife said...

Love all of your pretty blues!
We are expecting clouds and rain for the next five days here... I know how you feel.
Happy Blue Monday!

Ach jeetje, de winterblues? Nou vandaag heb je je zonnetje weer, maar wel koud, was hier -7 C vanmorgen.
Groetjes, Marianne

SmilingSally said...

I don't recall seeing this cute blue house. I think I remember the blue bike, though. Happy Blue Monday, Riet.

Dag Riet,
Noemen ze 'van de regen in de drup'. Ik weet het, ken je tenslotte nu al jaren, jij en ik houden van geen van beide van de winter. Geef ons de lente en de zomer maar, toch?! Maar moeten gewoon nog een poosje blijven tandhakken naar mooi weer.Kippen maar uit de vaart genomen en opgesloten in een verwarmde schuur. Ha, ha slaapt de bazin ook beter van! Hoe is het met je man? Lieve groet, Marja

HansHB said...

Lovely blue!
Happy Blue Monday to you!

What a lovely blue house - I'd love a house like that! A lovely set of photos and beautifully presented in the photo mosaic.

A Garden of Threads said...

Lovely, the blue bicycle is perfect. I see yellow flowers in the basket in summer.

Beautiful!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.

Anna said...

Gaat wel weer over, Riet... ;))
Mooie collage heb je gemaakt met mooie kleuren!
Fijne week en lieve groetjes Anna

Karen said...

Delightful shots Riet! It's so cold and grey over here right now.

Photo Cache said...

lovely post. hope you get some sun soon.

Josephine said...

Zooooo lieve Rietje, deze
foto's knallen er heerlijk uit.
Mooi al die blauwtinten, en
volgens mij helpt dat zeker wel
bij een winter dipje......

Vandaag overigens SUPER mooi weer,
en als het zo blijft vriezen, en
daarbij in het noorden GEEN sneeuw.
Dan zie ik er nog een elfstedentocht
geschaatst worden, hihihi.
Het is hier nu min 8 graden.

Veel liefs,
Josephine

We have a little hamlet close to where we live called Ansnorveldt that have little houses built like that. The residents are originally dutch. Valerie

Pondside said...

I love that shade of blue - the house, the bike - beautiful.

What lovely shades of blue! So pretty.

My Dream Canvas said...

I love photography too!! Absolutely gorgeous! I am following you and I hope you will do the same :)

Jackie said...

Oh my goodness I love this entire blog. I am toying with the idea of adding a page to mine just for my photos.

These are so so very beautiful. I love your flower garden!!

Beautiful compositions!!!

Winter Blues is NOT fun...but you certainly made up for it by sharing these lovely photos.

Hope you get past the winter blues. I've really struggled with finding time to get out and take pictures this winter. Love the bicycle!

Mary Howell Cromer said...

Hi Riet, happy images, makes the cold chill we have right now, bring in a little warmth. Happy week~

Jeanne said...

Good morning Riet, I was happy to see your comment. Our wireless has been in and out for two days and right now we are up. Our weather has been very bad and we are expecting more bad weather (snow) around 5:00pm. The mountains right behind us will have a foot or more. We will have 3-6 inches with strong winds. I'm making a big pot of soup just in case. We are all electric but our cabin on our property is gas. No worries if the power is out.
I do not remember your pics. As always, they are so lovely.
I enjoyed your blue. When we were in the Netherlands I have never seen so many bikes in one place before. We noticed people of all ages rode bikes. Great exercise.

I'm glad your husband is recovering. I know it can be a long drawn out process. The vaccination for shingles is sooooo expensive. It may be worth it though.
Blessings, Jeanne
