This is quite incredible, Linda! Your very specific and wonderful Pantone color set! But for -- the sky! Well, you're in the right place to do the checking.
I love that you consider it sophisticated Jeanine - that's a true compliment. And I am in the right place to keep track of the blueness - especially now that the rainy season is over.
I looked at it twice now. I’m amazed by it all, and that you did it! It’s such a cool thing to just — Do! I love it. And there’s also something rather romantic about it, too, gauging the depth of blueness.
So neat. I am going to show a friend/send her your link who does different scientific type stuff like you do, and is also good at working with materials, in an art-type way, but also just a good seamstress. Her recent thing a couple yrs ago was an astrolabe. She made one and continues to do cool stuff. It fascinates me bc i never did work well w/ my hands. There were 6 kids in my family and the older 3 learned a lot of nuts and bolts, but by the time we younger 3 were around-there's a bit of an age difference btwn the older kids and us younger ones- I think my parents were, well, busy (!) haha, and also not as young any more. If memory serves, I think my mom actually made my 4H project dress, bc it easier than teaching me. We lived in then country then and she was always canning and freezing, and baking. My older sis though,oddly or not, is a good seamstress. So, I took to writing--and so it goes.
In beautiful Devon, England, as with much of the rest of the country I would estimate we are getting between 3 and 5. June feels more like April, some of May felt like July. Global Warming is causing havoc and El Nino is on the way.
Not that this has much impact on us, as we are used to a little dampness.
What a great idea to make one yourself! And what a beautiful one you made. I could use one of these for green and measure all the greens of Japanese trees.
Thanks Claire! You totally could make one for trees, it would be a verdemeter! 💚
I have also been thinking about a couple of variations - a sunsetometer for the oranges, pinks, and reds in the evening sky, and a lagoonometer for the turquoise shades of the ocean.

But of course your original prototype Cryanometer is more sophisticated than Pantone. And reserved for: the Sky!

Absolutely! Thank you again - I like to just.... Do! Especially in Blue. hahaha

Thanks Jeanine - I'd love to meet your maker friend.
Love the idea of measuring the blueness of the sky (or rather taking the time to contemplate the shade of blue each day). ✨
It's just fun Erin. You would love it.
Very creative, that’s the kind of ‘blues’ you want to have. 🌊💙
True blue. 💙
I just love this. Absolutely perfect.
Thanks for the wonderful compliment! You see perfection, I, as the creator, see improvments. 🤣
Good you are getting and enjoying a 24 Linda.

Travel well.
Thanks for the note Chris! I'll enjoy some sunshine for you and hope for not too much havoc in your weather. 💙

Thank you Owen, my brilliant friend. That comment from you means so much to me!
