I'm on holidays this week although somewhat ironically (or maybe not ironically at all) my husband
got called into work today so I had the house to myself. I took Fudge for walks and played with him
in the garden, uploaded some photos for printing, took my camera into the garden and photographed
some of the mushrooms and toadstools which have sprung up, did some (well, just a little) tidying,
and enjoyed a leisurely cup of coffee, some Italian biscuits, and looked through the new cookery
books I bought yesterday.

Nikon D90
1/800s f/9.0 at 50.0mm iso250 full exif

I call that a near perfect kind of day. Glad you got time to wind down and relax and to the things you enjoy, and record it in a lovely moody image like this.

a relaxed moment, not too rushed then...great to have the time and peace of mind to savour the moments during a free day...

Superb detail and colours.. excellent composition.

Inventive use of the shadows here; normally it would be tempting to ensure that the pitcher was fully included in the lit zone but that's a case of "the dangers of a tidy mind". (Which I know I fall prey to occasionally.) By breaking out from that convention and letting it fall into partial shadow the shot has become more interesting. Enjoy the holiday; housework never killed anyone but hey, why risk it?

Sounds like a wonderful day. It's sometimes nice to have day of leisure and to take it easy. Very nice photo too.
