Afternoon Light on a Little Glass Jar

I was thinking I'd get out to take some shots at midday today, but with the temperature barely hitting 10 degrees F, I really couldn't muster up the desire to put on my coat and go outside! So I found a willing subject indoors and enjoyed the way the afternoon light interacted with its bumpy surface.

Very pretty! Perfect for Flash of Red!

oh, a factice! beautiful curves and the details you captured are quite stunning. there are no horrible reflections to it. great shot.

i've been cooped inside the whole day today. there was supposed to be a nice sunset so around quarter to five i thought i should go out and take a few sunset shots. did i do it? heck no! i got as far as taking off my sweater then i promptly put it back on. :-)
