Day Twenty Three

I have 441 blue jelly beans and 82 orange M&Ms. And yes, some of them are beginning to look a bit worn!! No I am not even tempted to eat any of them, the places these jelly beans have been makes them unfit for human consumption! I'm not even tempted to eat the other coloured jelly beans I still have. In fact, I don't think I will ever eat a jelly bean again!!

Today's idea is thanks to my daughter. I didn't think I was going to have enough jelly beans to pull this one off but with some blue cloth filling the bottom of the water feature it just worked. Below is a picture of the complete water feature.

Excellent! I can't believe all the wonderful ideas you keep coming up with!

Egad! Cloth or not, the blue jellybeans seem to be multiplying!
This theme is sooo clever, and you're being so original with it.

Wonderful! I'm so impressed with how you keep coming up with all these ideas! When I did the "jellybeans the right way" h2h, I had such trouble just coming up with one idea!!

Love your flow of the blue jellybeans!
Another very creative image.

Oh, that's so funny! Thanks for answering my question so well! That's marvellous! Your bin man won't know what happened when he finds a whole bag of beans in there on the 1st Aug! Or would that be the 3rd?!?
Anyway, this is another great idea and a great shot. It's so quaint. Nice work!

You counted them? :p
Kudos to your daughter for the creative idea. I like it :)

Ha ha! I remember how tired I was of jelly beans after I finished my "painting" for a multimedia contest.

Anyway, I am very jelly bean sympathetic - I did not eat any as I made that either.

Your theme is very inspiring to me! I want to try something similar (in the privacy of my own camera) just to see if I can do it.

This is one of the more entertaining subjects in the Challenge, and that's saying something!

A jellybean waterfall; fantastic idea, and it looks great!

Your daughter is as creative as you are! I love this. Great idea with the blue cloth - I can't even tell where it is. Love how you positioned them to tumble down into the basin.

Your daughter's pretty clever, just like you :) Great idea with the fountain, very creative :) And I love the explanation, I've also been wondering if you love jelly beans so much that you take such good photos of them every day. hehe...
