Another walk, another color story.

Walking through the streets of our Dorchester neighborhood today, it began to rain.
Just a little.
White:


I like looking at all the houses, the patterns of the shingles, the size of the window, what is in the windows (some glass bottles, a barking dog, a lace curtain.)
Pink:

I turned around, but by the time we got back to our street the rain stopped. Amira, agitated that the stroller stopped, pressed me with her babels to walk some more.
Red:

Going into other peoples spaces, seeing where their furniture is, what is worn where, what nick knacks are scattered about, the towels in the bathroom-all of it is interesting to me.
Orange:

The most mundane details of life.
Yellow:

I guess I am what one would call a looky loo.
Green:

Growing up my mom was always bringing us to open houses, hoping to find her dream home.
Blue:

Amira and I took our time looking at our neighbor's flowers. So many people keep their front yards so neat!
Purple:

The rain started and stopped again and again but was never too heavy.
Brown:

Amira kept leaning forward.
Black:

A man coming down his front stairs saw her and smiled big. "These are the best days of your life" he said.
Gray:

  1. Such a delightful stroll through your beautiful neighborhood! The color finds were so marvelous. I am enamoured with the purple shot. The colors are so saturated and marvelous!

  3. What beautiful photos... On a walk with my husband the other night, I spotted a snail as well and just had to bring it home to show the children.
