2024-07-01 the story of the footed bowl...

I found this footed bowl at a flea market a couple of days ago, and ‘had’ to have it.

My husband asked, ‘Why?’ I replied, ‘for my photography! This bowl makes a wonderful prop.’

He chuckled and said, ‘You already have so many props, and you hardly ever have the time to take out your camera these days.’

I admitted, ‘I know, and I want to change that. But regardless, I must have this bowl. Look at how it reflects the light.’

He agreed, ‘Okay, but every time you complain about not having an idea for the daily photo, you have to take a picture of this bowl.’

I agreed, 'Deal! July will be the month of the footed bowl – if I don’t have any other ideas.' And so, the equivalent of $2 changed hands, and I now have a new prop. Let’s see if it helps me get back on track.

PS 1: 😉it wasn't about the money, its because, we both have so much "stuff" and agreed on not adding more,... and more, and more.

PS 2: I wonder what you would call it. Chalice or goblet didn't seem to be appropriate.
I like "footed bowl". It is quite photogenic and I hope it's the stimulus you need.

Whatever you call it, it’s lovely and you will enjoy as we on 365 will.

It does have great character. Lovely deep color and composition.

Very interesting, you could probably do a 30 day challenge around that prop. Our rule is we have to say where it will go neatly before buying it.

Two bucks is nothing for such a fun prop! But, yeah. The space for our hobby becomes problematic at times 😘

It was worth the price! You took a wonderful photo of it!

Love the story, and the compromise. And the image is fabulous - I look forward to more of the bowl/chalice/goblet. We also try not to bring more 'stuff' into the house. Hubby has a rule - one in, two out! I can't do that though!
