Lovely as usual, Elizabeth. I love the railings being a seven person job. It reminded my of somewhere we went in New England a few years ago (could have been Montpelier) where one man was employed in the Senate building just to polish the enormous brass staircase.
It's amazing how often a shocking shade of chartreuse appears in nature - moss on a tree or seaweed washed up along a shore. It's actually more common than we think.
Can anybody who isn't metallic actually wear chartreuse without looking jaundiced?
My husband tells me that there's a very long bridge over the Firth of Forth (iirc), and that by the time the crew finishes painting it, it's time to go back to the other end and start all over.
Hmmm...I wonder if Michelle Obama was in the fashion know when she wore chartreuse to her husband's inauguration or whether she started a fashion trend by doing so...?
I do like the Chertreuse Day concept and the metallic model is the best I have seen around! I very nice grouping.
ReplyDeleteI'm seeing green!
ReplyDeleteLove the manniken. How do you spell that word?
In the third pic it looks like she has a mohawk - a green mohawk - because of the reflected trees. Very cool.
Happy Saturday!
If I had known about Chartreuse Day I would have known what to wear.

ReplyDeleteLovely collection of photos, I love the reflections of the gold boxes :)
ReplyDeleteDo you suppose that painting those railings has something to do with federal job creation? If so, my house in Houston needs painting . . .
