Spools Buttons and Spider Plants

Finally watered the spider plants and then continued learning a bit more about taking pictures of glass. Mixed them together and have a new vignette on top of my tea cupboard.

I've been learning about backgrounds, lighting, trying different lenses. (speaking of changing lenses (55-250mm), learned the hard way that just because I hear a click and see the picture on my little screen that the picture actually exists. No, have to hear a double click and then review to make sure there is actually a picture on the card - lost about an hour of photo work at a remote site - not at home).

Couldn't figure out what I had done wrong. Tried again once I settled down and that is when I learned I need to hearing a double click and also to check to make sure...

Back to using the 50 mm lens (currently my comfort zone).

My tea cupboard (read about it here) was inspired by Brenda of Cozy Little House who has such a delightful coffee bar.

Fourteen months later the cupboard still houses tea (and the flow blue sugar bowl below still serves Earl Grey teabags).
