Monday, I think it was, I promised you some shots of clay pots.
Not exactly exciting stuff to hear about, but hopefully you'll find these as beautiful as I do!
There were aisles and aisles of glazed planters!
All colors of the rainbow, all sizes and shapes and textures.
Oh my!
A few years ago, shortly after my son was born, I took a pottery class. It was mainly to get out of the house and have some "sanity time", but also as a creative outlet.
And when I look at these pots - especially the bird bath below - I am craving that 'get-your-hands-dirty' kind of creating! Now, mind you, there is NO possible way that I'd be able to jump in and make a gorgeous bird bath! In my class I managed to make a bowl, a votive candle holder that was supposed to be a bowl, and a plate...perhaps I should do a shoot with those???
And of course, I can not resist cranking that lens out of focus!
This one may actually be my favorite.
I can see it now - blown up to a large scale and hanging in a crisp white cottage over the fireplace.
POW!
The photos are lovely! I love pottery. My mom works for a pottery company so I have pots everywhere in my house being used for all sorts of things:)
ReplyDeleteLove the blue.
ReplyDeleteI love the bokeh shot!
ReplyDeleteOH I would hang that last one.. right over my serious yellow fireplace...Yes I would
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful!! :) So I suppose I wouldn't look weird if I was lugging my camera around taking pictures of everything?! I am often tempted to do that, but resist.
ReplyDeleteThese are neat, I worked at a garden store and we had pots and bird baths just like these.
ReplyDeleteLove those colors
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love the last shot.
ReplyDeleteNice--the pots and how photographed them. I love the shades of blue colours too.
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful. Great shots.
ReplyDeleteWow girl! Those blues are gorgeous!!!!! And yes, that last one would look perfect in a cottage. Love it!
ReplyDeletebreath-taking!
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful shots. Love how you play with the camera and do different effects.
ReplyDeleteThese are really beautiful shots...
ReplyDeleteKatie, someone put me onto your photography several weeks ago. I saw this post and tried something similar today. Then came back and read about your equipment--was so encouraged that you're not using multi-thousand dollar lenses! Then went to your 365 from last year and...WOW!! That was an amazing trip. You have a truly special eye. You have also been working hard, but seriously. It makes me smile to think of what joy you must have in it.
ReplyDeleteHi, there! I'm just a few days late on this one... hehehe! But I did want to say that blue is (one of) my most favorite colors and this is awesome!! Wow! And you know what else, I'm lovin' the whole 'out-of-focus' thing you got going --- I sure could see it hanging up in some big fancy place! :)
