An oven with a view  - my shed partially revealed ! by phil_howcroft

An oven with a view - my shed partially revealed !

I've gone a bit quirky with this image.

This is our oven in the kitchen (actually ..in the kitchen...where else would you find an oven) !

The oven is stainless steel, but above the oven there is a 'glass cupboard door' that hinges up and down to reveal a microwave.

Anyway the door reflects the garden through the kitchen window , so I therefore used the nice reflection to get a 'quirky image'

Things you can see in the reflection

Kitchen window ledge and associated items.....from right to left as you view (from left to right in actual view)......

- Antibacterial hand wash soap and anti bacterial hand gel
- Pink watering can (for house plants and house flowers) ..so yes that's 4 watering cans I own !
- Wilko grow your own lavender pot (not doing very well)
- Wilko grow your own basil (doing rather well)
- geranium stalk and flower in a vase (geranium broken by a flying whippet)
- a yellow fluffy (a ruby toy... a little chicken ...but yellow furry sounds nicer)
- a red and green plant in a pot

Garden.......

- Trellis with climbing rose (subject of a photo this week)
- Weather vein - rusty south S (subject of an photo last month)
- some pink roses (photographed quite a bit - but not seen on here)
- Partial view of 'hidden shed' behind trellis

Anyway a rather quirky reflection for you all
Anyway a
Great view

Cool shot Phil and the elusive shed gets ever closer!! Mostly I'm stunned by how clean your oven is....
August 12th, 2011  
wow, shiny shiny oven!! Will the yellow fluffy make a full appearance in a photo at some point? I'm intrigued! Also curious to know what was cooking in the oven at the time, too .. yes, I'm a nosy so-and-so :o)

@judithg thanks Judith, I cannot take any credit for the clean oven, I have to admit my wife cleans it (although she said it's a good job I didn't photograph inside the oven :) )
