cerulean blue

By Debbra Dunning Brouillette

Cerulean blues — the colors of sea and sky — are my favorites among all in the color spectrum. As a lifelong lover of the sea, I have always been drawn to tropical destinations. Some of my happiest moments have been those spent by the ocean. I have glorious memories of being aboard a ship, gazing out at its depths, and of diving beneath the surface of a cerulean-hued sea to explore the underwater world.

When a blue sky meets the multi-hued shades of the sea, which often combine light and medium shades of turquoise, there is nothing more beautiful, more peaceful, more calming.

Drink in the cerulean beauty with me in these photos, taken on my travels to far away places, including Bora Bora, French Polynesia; Ajacio, Corsica; Santorini, Greece; Vomo Island, Fiji; St. Vincent & the Grenadines; and Tenerife, Canary Islands.
