poppy red & blue-black {palette of the week}

Whoa – a long and unexpected break from colour posting this week. Let’s just say I departed for beige territory but I’m happily back in happy hue land now! I spotted these gorgeous shots styled and photographed by one of my favourite creatives, Dietlind Wolf , and realized yet again why I love poppies. The crispy scarlet-red and that mysterious blue-purple shade of black makes one smashing combo…

Those colours have such depth and concentration. The centers look like giant blueberries.

Gorgeous mix! Even though I’m a black&white girl I love to watch gorgeous colour combinations.

I’m growing these Asian poppies right now, from seeds, and it takes a year to get blooms, which will be so rewarding to finally have flowers! I hope I get flowers like these!
