I usually show off my fossicked finds after I've cleaned them up, but thought they'd make an interesting still life.
Today's haul 2 Shipham's jars, 2 tiny vials and a pot.All are intact, found on the surface and not excavated.
oooh those are fabulosas! don't clean them, but if you must, just a cursory cleaning of the outside, so they would retain their "excavated" look. aces!
@monikozi here https://365project.org/30pics4jackiesdiamond/365/2021-01-11 where the sea wall has been breached and after each high tide more glassware appears. Susan @wakeleys and I enjoy a rummage to see what we can find on the surface @uerks good one @marlboromaam and disinfected too @theredcamera but the colours of the eroded glass is sometmes really pretty @summerfield they will be cleaned in and out and sprayed with antiseptic @jacqbb thank you camera club this month is all about still lifes (lives?) and I made a start today @365anne I've never found any like these before nne and theyre both different, I wonder if they are perfume sample bottles? @katarzynamorawiec thank you
I like them in their natural state with all the sand and dirt still on them. You were exactly right it’s more interesting this way. I love the light and the composition.
You're building up quite a collection. I've heard stories here of people fossicking on old tip sites for bottles, picking the best for themselves and smashing what they don't want :(
