• The sky on a clear day can have a dark pastel blue hue, especially near the horizon.
  This is because the sunlight is scattered by the molecules of air, and blue light is scattered more than other colors.
  The more air molecules there are between the sun and the observer, the more blue light is scattered, resulting in a darker shade of blue.

• Some flowers, such as cornflowers, hydrangeas, and delphiniums, have dark pastel blue petals.
  They contain pigments called anthocyanins, which reflect blue light and absorb other colors.
  The pH level of the soil can affect the color of these flowers, making them more blue or purple.

• Some birds, such as blue jays, indigo buntings, and bluebirds, have dark pastel blue feathers.
  This is because they have structural coloration, which means that their feathers have microscopic structures that reflect and diffract light, creating iridescent colors.
  The angle of the light and the observer can change the perceived color of these birds.

• Some gemstones, such as sapphires, lapis lazuli, and turquoise, have dark pastel blue colors.
  They contain minerals that absorb or reflect certain wavelengths of light, creating different hues.
  For example, sapphires contain traces of iron and titanium, which absorb red and green light, leaving blue light to be reflected.

• Some fabrics, such as denim, chambray, and linen, can be dyed with dark pastel blue colors.
  This is because they are made from natural fibers that can absorb dyes well, and because blue is a popular color for clothing.
  Dark pastel blue fabrics can create a casual, cool, or elegant look, depending on the style and accessories.
