2nd November 2003

A Smashing Time Was Had By All.

In olden times my dustbin would have been full of my efforts for Today's Photographs.
Shots of the rain flooding down the window making the image of the garden look distorted....Rubbish.
Missed shots of fireworks....Rubbish
I set up lighting and background on the table to take a Wine Bottle & Glass....Absolute Crap!!!:( (shadows all over the place)....I still have the glass of wine to drink though!!!:)

Adrienne said, "If you are scraping the barrel now, after two months, what ever will you be up to in the depths of winter". "Take a picture of the plate".

The plate (Rosenthal Thomas) which was broken yesterday was part of a set that we had as a wedding present in 1969. John Lewis still sell the style but not the colour. We will replace it with a plain white one.

Olympus E-10
1/50s f/2.2 at 18.0mm iso80 with Flash full exif

Ah, what a shame! Pat recommends Ebay, or how about a smidgeon of Araldite?!
Fantastic photo, though, very interesting to look at, and like the contrast of the dark background against the pattern on the plate.
