...don't you just hate it when you have cleared away, washed up and dried the dishes and then you find a few utensils that never made it into the washing-up bowl and have to be dealt with separately - so it was this lunchtime.
Ah now Richard, I'm quite happy to acknowledge you as a great photographer ( this shot shows you can make even a domestic scene look exceptional) but now you make me feel I,m not pulling my weight around the house. Thanks mate..
@jack4john You have jumped to conclusions: I never actually said that it was me who does the washing-up, and, in fact, I rarely do... I do do the cooking though ;-))
@yrhenwr This is actually your doing! I was thinking about your 100 photos in 30 minutes, so I started wandering around the house, camera in hand... This is one of the resulting images - and I posted it because I liked it, with no other thought in mind!
very good idea , I did not do the dishes myself ... so I 'd rather not take a picture of my kitchen or I'll feel guilty being out taking photos rather than the household !
@vignouse Way to go, Richard! You are the only person you need to please/satisfy/impress….! I am thinking of repeating that project with my little Lumix G5, with its four-thirds lenses, to to find out how the equipment affects the kind of photos I take. Of course, then I will need several other cameras with which to do the same….! I already have a couple of old 35mm film cameras (without suitable lenses) then I would have to try medium format, then 5x4, then 10x8…..this could get expensive!
This is really very good, Richard. Seeing the shot and the sympathetic processing. If only there had been only three knives - three "items", one glass, two cup & saucer and three knives.
You make the ordinary look extraordinary - I especially love all the detail in the glass. Many thanks for your continued support of my photos - it keeps me going.
this is so pleasing. the light, the lines and squares, the reflections and the refraction it's exquisite really. I could live without the biggest knife I think. It glares a little on my screen.
@carla42 Thanks Carla - the biggest knife is not in fact the brightest part of the image, this scene was not posed, I just came upon it in the kitchen and snapped it as it was.
