I think the color version works a bit better for the bouquet and veil, but what do I know?
Not that I noticed, but I was just walking by on my way back to my car and only stopped for a sec to snap the pic. It was the one detached trumpet clinging to the (purple stove door?) that caught my eye.the size of that datura/angels trumpet (?) Love those blooms -was it fragrant ?
(They even die beautifully )
Gosh, these remind of walking the suburbs of San Francisco. Wonderful!
Aren’t these gorgeous. And I see some of them have blue plaques - for famous people, or just because they’re old? I bet they’re really expensive to buy.
Well-spotted on the plaques. The answer is: Because they're old. (Not too many famous people from Santa Cruz other than Zasu Pitts, whose house is a few blocks aways.) Zillow says the first one is 6 bedrooms and pegs it around $2 million. The others are all $1 million plus. The plaques are a mixed blessing, as being on the historical register constrains what you can do to the house.Aren’t these gorgeous.

I’d never heard of ZaSu (Sayzoo) Pitts, but she was quite an actress. What a time she must have lived through.Well-spotted on the plaques. The answer is: Because they're old.

The houses on the other side of the street are equally nice, but the street itself gets a fair amount of traffic. It's about two blocks from the small downtown.

As I scrolled down the image I thought “Makerel sky” and then I saw your title. You’ve captured it beautifully.
