Silver Blue: From a retirement reception on December 2, 2016, the roast beef “slider” style sandwiches, surrounded with grape tomatoes, made for an aesthetically pleasing photo composition. Sail on, Dr. Leavitt!

Silver Blue: This ornament (hand painted) was given to me by my mother from her personal collection. I think a student may have given it to her; still, I love the way it looks as the lights shine through it.

There Must Have Been Some Magic…

Silver Blue: Back in the mid-1970s, my mom and I took “punch-out” Christmas decorations and embellished them with glitter. Two of them, Frosty and Mrs. Frosty, adorned our tree every year, and since 2014, have adorned my own tree. Special memories from special times. While the above photo also appears on Silver Blue Photography’s Facebook page, the one of Mrs. Frosty is an Eyes of Silver Blue exclusive.
