marbles

Today’s challenge was “round”. It really took me a long time to figure out what I wanted to do. I took pictures of eyes, wheels, balls, and bubbles, but nothing really clicked. Until I asked my oldest son to go get his marble collection. These marbles belonged to my grandfather and are stored in a gallon jug. They’ve probably been in this same gallon jug for twenty years, or more. I got so many great pictures, I couldn’t pick just one for this post. I actually had a hard time narrowing it down to four.

These two were my favorites. I just loved how bright the blue shined.

Did you ever play with marbles as a kid?
What color was your favorite marble? Can you still picture it in your mind? Do you still have it?
