Platters

42998VIII ©

After bringing home work from the Johnson Museum at Cornell University earlier this week, we reluctantly left all the platters in the back of the mini-van. As luck would have it, this weekend we needed the full use of the back of the van. So, as is always the case, we had to move one thing, to move another thing, to get another thing to find its rightful place. In the end, the day was spent moving lots of platters, and luckily, taking pictures of eleven more! Here's a quick glimpse of a detail of one of my favorite ones today: 42998VIII

There are 22 more to come.

Your platters are awesome. I checked out the images in your blog of Aug. 11 too. Such beautiful colors.

Thank you Patricia. I have been taking pictures of these huge platters for quite a while now. Every new platter is a whole new experience. Sometimes I have to go back and reshoot a platter because I missed some detail earlier. That's what this week has been all about... reshooting! Thanks for your comments.
Keep your eyes peeled for the next round of platters coming up.
