Crazy Tuesday - theme of July 28, 2020: Top
Seen in a cabinet at my mum's: a little carafe / decanter with a stopper on top.
Impromptu image, but I was quick-witted enough to switch on the illumination of the cabinet - I love bubbly bokeh, you know !! :))
High ISO, handheld and noise ... so just for fun :D
HaPpY CrAzY Tuesday, everyone !
I will be browsing late in the evening due to work
Romantic tipple, a still life project, the best bit was the bonus of drinking the port after the shoot :-)
Thanks for viewing my images, comments and feedback welcome.
Please read my profile before following.
I used manual focus to catch part of the etched and cut-glass detail on the side. This is an antique decanter/vase from Bremerhaven that my husband's mother inherited or brought with her.
Sorry I'm late! Natural backlight through this glass.
Thanks for looking!

“I know he's around,
When the sky and the ground start in ringing.
I know that he's near,
By the thunder I hear in advance.
His words, his words alone,
Are the words that can start my heart singing,
And his is the only music that makes me dance.”
Lyrics from “The Music That Makes Me Dance” written by Bob Merrill and Jule Styne from the musical “Funny Girl” (1960).
The theme for "Smile on Saturday" for the 6th of June is "musical instruments", and when I read the theme, the lyrics from the Broadway musical “Funny Girl”, based on the life of American comedienne and singer Fanny Brice, written to showcase singer and actress, Barbra Streisand’s vocal and comedic talents, came to mind. I happened to have a still life that I think is suitable for the theme already: one featuring a pair of rather eccentric designer shoes and a violin borrowed from a musician friend of mine. In order to highlight the beautiful instrument, I have processed the photo in selective colour. As “The Music That Makes Me Dance” is a romantic song about unrequited love, I decided to leave the pink roses in the still life in colour as well. I hope you like my choice for this week’s theme, and that it makes you smile!
The shoes that feature in this still life are stilettos from the 1950s in pristine condition. The heel pads are leather, whilst the toe of the shoes are bleached snakeskin hand painted with black dots and finished with a black grosgrain ribbon.
The purse in the foreground is a hand beaded example from the late 1910s to early 1920s, made of black faceted jet beads.
The glasses on the tray are faceted crystal from the 1930s, whilst the decanter of port is from the late Victorian era. The soda syphon is from the 1920s. The silver tray and lidded silver serving dish are late Victorian.
Flickr Friday theme Reflection wine decanter and glass of wine in a mirror. Happy Flickr Friday. the old photographer ,;-)
Decanter and surrounding shops and restaurants just as darkness was falling on Bruntsfield. Quick snap with the phone camera, came out better than I expected for that.
sorry to be boring but yet another Knightshayes picture..I haven't been out to take autumn pics yet so this drop of colour will have to do for now..Cheers !!
At the V&A Museum. This striking decanter was made in Birmingham by George Bacchus & Sons, around 1850.
Snapped in a cabinet of decanters, jugs and vases, with a Sigma 30mm f1.4 wide open with pp!
My grandmother's Sherry Decanter and Glasses Set in Sepia tones.
I believe this was a wedding present received circa 1922.
It is very fragile, fine etched glass that was very carefully looked after and is still in perfect condition.
My grandparents lived in the NSW 'bush' and moved around all over NSW until they moved to Sydney after WW2.
A true family treasure.

Had to take another photo as I hadn't followed the instructions for CLEAR glass. Decanter Krosno, Poland.
KROSNO opened their doors during 1923 in southern Poland, following generations of Polish glassblowers who had been perfecting their craft for more than 1000 years.

The next challenge will be "Anything glass in B&W". Glass can be a challenge to photograph, especially in black and white. It involves careful lighting to capture detail and definition. Anything made of clear glass can be used as your subject. No color photos please, only black and white.

Playing a green laser on a decanter of Laphroaig whisky.
This silver drinks set is not all it may appear to be at first glance. It is in fact a 1:12 miniature drinks set, made by artisan Clare Bell at the Clare Bell Brass Works in Maine, in the United States. Each goblet is only one centimetre in height and the decanter at the far end is two- and three-quarter centimetres with the stopper inserted.
The theme for “Looking Close… on Friday!” is “all in a row”.
When I heard the theme, I really wanted to do something using simple silver pieces reflecting off a mirrored surface. This miniature 1:12 artisan drinks set arrived at my home recently after several months in transit. I had almost given up hope that I would ever see it when it arrived. It seemed to be the perfect choice for the theme. I hope you agree.
Clare-Bell Brass Works is an American manufacturer of fine dollhouse miniatures. Each miniature is precision machined from solid brass or silver metal, carefully hand assembled, and in some cases gold plated for lasting beauty. They are located in Lovell, Maine.
