à la japonaise by summerfield

à la japonaise

at the risk of being repetitive, this is all i have to offer for today. why? because the cluster of icicles in the balcony railing have melted and i meant to use them to photograph bubbles. also, it would have been better if i had included a couple of sushi bits but i have already eaten them before i thought of this idea. so...

but fret not - i was told this weekend we're going to be in the deep freeze once again. oh, boy! i should tear apart more boxes to see what i can photograph indoors!

over at five plus two @fiveplustwo we are portraying "luxury" for our theme this week. check us out and maybe you have your own unique interpretation of luxury. http://365project.org/fiveplustwo/365/2018-01-10

A beautiful set of China you have there. After having lived in Asia for 10 years, I am always happy to see that people actually use it. A fabulous composition and shot, fav!

Weather is crazy, isn't it? So warm here today that everything was a mist and fog. Beautiful still life.

The bowls are a beautiful colour. Makes me wonder what you are going to put in them!

@suesmith - these are part of my "japanese" dishes/implements. when i take home sushi for lunch or dinner, i like to eat them using proper dishes and implements. it just enhances the taste of the food.

@ludwigsdiana - yes, i laugh at some of the people i know with beautiful houses and expensive china cabinets with their expensive china on display but use melamine or plastics for everyday meals. when i used to host dinners at my place, only the white people were excited to eat on proper china, while the others were afraid they might break them. what silly ideas, really. i used to have 4 different sets of china but at my advance age i very seldom ask people over as i don't cook meat anymore so i gave one entire set to the girl who used to model for me at the beginning of my project. but once i retire, i may get into food social once again.

@taffy - crazy and weird! everything's melted and there are big puddles everywhere. but i was told we'll be in the deep freeze again this weekend.

Great still life. I'd like to do more still-lives too, but the set-up is too much work and I never seem to get the placement of things right.

Great composition with lots of color.

Such beautiful bowls. I really don't see the point in hiding such pieces in a cupboard

Love it. We use them already a long time before it`s became populair in our country.
You can`t own wild life.
The goverment decided long time ago that there most come more area`s for the wild birds. Now we have more than plenty of them.
