Draining Board

Cheltenham, Glos.

The oh so familiar result of many hours tied to the sink...

I must admit an inspiration by Maaike Huizer for this composition: see http://www.pbase.com/emmelafoto/image/109956122 for a much better shot of kitchen utensils (thanks Maaike!!)

This is a subtle (I hope) cross-processing technique applied in post to bring out the steely-grey of the cutlery and drainer; I left my daughter's more colourful implements in as a foil to the rest.

Wednesday 11th's culinary effort in the March Challenge; for others 'at home in the kitchen' this month click here

Thank you, Doug, for your compliments.
Don't be too modest. This is very good. Great treatment.

A nice miss match of cutlery , just like ours. Don't you just hate matching dinner sets :-)

Nice arrangement. I like the color treatment!

I like the end result too ..... the colours of your daughter's cutlery add interesting, and I like the slightly green/grey tones of the metal. Well done.

Good work - the colours do add a nice bit of contrast, a pleasing result all round.
