42
According to "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", 42 is the answer to "the ultimate question of life the universe and everything" - though no one knows what the question is. To me it's all much simpler than that! It's how long we've been married - 42 years ;o)
So we are celebrating this week. And one thing we did was to indulge our passion for glass, art glass, hand-blown glass. The artist whose work draws me is Elin Isaksson. Ice, snow, dewdrops, shoots - these are some of the shapes and textures that she draws on. Elin is Swedish, and she was trained in Sweden and Scotland, and works in Scotland. "Her ideas often develops after travelling back to the north of Sweden or along the coast of Scotland taking endless photographs as muse." No wonder her glass appeals to me ;o)
More shapes and colours are in the first comment field.
This photo is of a small blue and clear glass tea light - about 9.5cm/3.5" tall. Shot with a simple single light above. Shooting glass is one of the Simple Pleasure I enjoy, whether it is art glass or a plain wine glass ;o)

Shot with the Zeiss 50mm Makro lens: Zeiss 50mm Makro
