Measuring Spoons by olivetreeann

Measuring Spoons

Well, the "kitchen series" continues. I decided to take the exposure in the other direction today with the measuring spoons.
I gotta fave this, the tones are so rich, it reminds me of an oil painting

@vickisfotos Thanks Vicki! It's all post-processing. I put the exposure really low and liked how it effected the picture.

I hope you are feeling better. Excellent low key shot of the spoons.

@cimes1 Thanks Carole! Yes, feeling better even though I still sound awful! As for the low key- it was all in the processing.
March 10th, 2014  
holy cow! we do have the same set of measuring spoons. i had them since i first learned how to bake back in the early 80's. i've had other sets but this particular set just stayed with me wherever i lived. they take good measures, don't they?
March 10th, 2014  
@summerfield LOL yes- they were a gift at a bridal shower in 1978! Thank you Vikki!

@bill_fe thanks Bill! It showed up mostly due to the processing.
