IKEA to the rescue

Centurion, South Africa

Sorry, due to other commitments, I have not had much time for shooting recently. All I could think of at short notice was good old IKEA.

Thanks, everyone. And I can confirm this was not Pops. :-)

I grabbed the four vases (bought in the States some years ago; there is no IKEA in South Africa) from the cupboard, made them stand next to each other on a table,; had some sunlight coming through a window from behind the vases; shot handheld at high ISO. Very annoyed with myself that I did not spot the groove on the edge of the red vase earlier. I should have turned the vase so that was hidden.

Regards, Nico

Hey, I thought this was Pops as well. But then I thought, "Suffering Succotash, I don't remember taking this shot. It must not be Pops." NICE!

I thought this was Pops too! Either way this should make him proud :)
Great closeup!
