Inspiration Monday: Gray & Green

Spring colors in Amsterdam’s Vondelpark…I have always loved this combination of dark gray and bright green. Mostly because it’s the kind of Oregon spring I’ve grown up with, but also because it’s such a determined departure from typical pastel spring colors. Don’t get me wrong, I like sunny days just as much as the next person–but a good rainstorm? With thunder and lightning? Well, that’s magic to me.

In this case, it was a walk in the park with a somber gray sky that looks as though a storm is brewing, even as a beautiful light filters through the clouds. It gives–I think–just a little bit of mystery.
