The first two photos are ones that I took and the third photo is the manufacturers thumbnail image. This is a reference to show the variations in the batik colors. The actual fabric looks closest to the first two photos and is not as dark or drab as the third photo. The fabric is a medium blue with colorful coral, moss green, cerulean blue, and tan-beige dolphins and seaweed on top.
** Photo 4 is the latest bolt of this fabric (with scale/ruler) and it is a little darker than the previous bolts of this fabric.
The actual fabric looks like the first two photos and is not as dark or as saturated in color as the third photo shows. The fabric is light and almost pastel. The background contains denim turquoise blue, cold purples, warm purples, muted mauve pinks and light dark-dusty blue colors. The dots on top have a mix of mint green/blue, chartreuse green/yellow, turquoise, off white and sometimes a tan/yellow color.
The actual fabric appears closest to the first two photos and is not as saturated as the last photo shows. The overall appearance has a dusty look to it with the background being mostly a medium water blue with darker ocean blue areas that have a slight purple undertone. The dots are mostly medium turquoise blue and light shamrock green.
