Description
Eons ago, it seems, I promised you a story about my trip to Wight's Nursery in Lynnwood, Washington. I spent over an hour wandering around with my camera, and took over four hundred photos that day!
................
So there I was, snapping pictures of flowers and assorted paraphernalia, minding my own business. The employees at Wight's, ever helpful, allowed me to go about my business unmolested. A nice woman, a customer, came up to me while I was shooting some particularly lovely roses and said to me, "Are you a painter?"
Feeling fairly certain that this woman had a good reason for asking me this rather odd question, given the activity in which I was engaged, I made every attempt to compose my face into an expression that would convey something other than incredulity! (I feel quite certain that I was unsuccessful.)
"I do paint some," I replied, "But I'm mostly a photographer."
"Oh," she said, bemusedly. And then, "OH!" as the light dawned and she realized how strange her question must have sounded to me. As it turns out, her husband is a painter, and she assumed I must be taking reference photos.
A fun addition to my picture-taking expedition!
...................
By the way, for those of you who came for the photograph, and not the story (!):
These are ceramic trays that go under matching flower pots. Wight's has a lovely selection of this sort of thing, and I'm afraid I will be subjecting you to a few ceramic abstracts this summer.
A bit of a breather from the whirlwind iris show!

Nice paraphernalia.....lol...Be like Randy, he would of put on his French accent and in French he would of said hell yes I'm a poet...lol..Nice shade of green.
Nice abstract and story:)
I thought they were stacks of plates at a resturant lol. good thing you put in the story. Nice shot
I recognized what these were right away. :-) This pov makes for a great shot.
Had me fooled... Even though you said stacked, I saw this as coiled hose. Odd shaped hose, but nevertheless... Very nice, Tara.
is really a great shot, with a pov fantastic and the lighting is ok brava
You had me guessing for a second of what it was, lol. Interesting story and an excellent shot. Aloha
I thought it was plates, just as Vaggabondd. My son has plates like these. :) Yes I like this kind of shots, Tara.. so I am looking forward to se more of it. And I like your little story too. You are a good humoristic story teller LOL. :)))
Awesome idea!!! I love the POV and the close-up! At first I thought it was a plant that had spun around something, but then i saw the texture!!! Great image!!!
I at first saw coiled hoses too. Beautiful shot and love the deep rich colors!
Excelent shot of the stacked plates, like a green color and a highlight on the edges.
Brilliant story and a lovely pic hugs lou x
Great POV and image! I enjoyed reading the story too!
Way cool 'abstract-y' image and loved the tale as usual :o) ~ Hugzzzz ~
Very graphic... a gorgeous shot that I adore my friend!
Excellent story and shot.
Oh, boy! I'm chuckling again! When I read the title, I was expecting 'voluptuous' and wondered if you'd been peeping at me! This is a really nice stacked group!
it makes a great abstract
good texture with a very fine detail
An excellent abstract!
Ceramic trays, you say? I could have sworn they were well used frisbees. Oh well, good POV and DOF and green color, lighting and textural effects in this capture. Incidentally, when the proprietor of this fine establishment asked if you were a painter, was she implying the type that does walls and ceilings using a roller, or the paint on canvas kind?
aww heck! I thought they were plates and it made me hungry! they are beasutiful
I love this one !!
My shed looks like this but my pots and trays are mostly for bonsai trees. However, from the thumbnail I thought this was going to be a pic of your washing up (dirty dishes)! lol. Excellent capture!
excellent idea for a great shot...
Nice shot...
I like both Thanks for the laugh it was sweet excellent image and words to go with :-)
