Coffee grinder and cinnamon. This is the alter-ego to the previous (and first) still life I posted the other day. When I lived in the Netherlands for a few years, I became a little obsessed with koffiemolen and managed to get my hands on eight of them, all different but equally beautiful. This one I think is rather old and the glass receptacle to catch the ground coffee is a little cracked, but I still love it.

Coffee Grinder

SSC - Tea or Coffee

This was a tough one and I was at a loss what to do, finally, I came up with the idea of visually showing the end journey of the coffee bean.

Thank you everyone for your visits, faves, and kind comments

Making a traditional Italian espresso is quite a rewarding process...nothing smells or tastes better than a freshly brewed cup of coffee!

Lots of warm rich tones here — perfect for a cold winter's evening — you can almost smell the coffee...

Es curiosa, la vida. Cuando eres niño el tiempo no acaba de pasar, y luego sin darte cuenta tienes 50 años, y de la infancia lo único que te queda cabe en una cajita oxidada.

Well, not officially spring for another week but it's warm and sunny here, in the UK, and I’m certainly not complaining! Trying for a strong 'directional light' shot with the room darkened down and only the light from the window illuminating the scene. The lamp isn't contributing much light, but there is a tiny amount of back-fill from a mirror on camera-right.

I noticed morning light slanting across the kitchen counter and realized that it was highlighting my shrine to caffeine.

Here's our French press, the bean grinder and behind is the K-cup brewer for when we're in a hurry.

Can't get the ball rolling without our caffeine!

I generally have 900 ml of coffee each morning via French press.

At night I set up the K-cup brewer for Kim so all she has to do is press 'play' as she gets ready to leave for the hospital.

When I haul my lazy heinie out of the sack, I eventually wander into the kitchen and start heating water and grinding beans.

Play with photos. Post to Flickr. Admire friends' photos.

Being retired is marvelous...

Coffee Grinder

Looks like a bit of a mom theme going here. This is her beloved coffee grinder. Little worse for the wear in it's 40+ (or more?) years. Takes about 5-minutes of hand grinding to process enough beans to create a single pot of French Press. We've always laughed about it (my wife and I typically killed the first pot w/in minutes) but she refuses any other grinder, nor pot style - much to Dad's vexation. Alas, it's mom's coffee grinder ;)

Winter's hit, with full force here in the UK and, gosh, it feels cold out there! Bringing some much needed winter cheer with homemade chocolate mincemeat muffins and some nice hot coffee!

The popularity of the last shot took me a little by surprise. Obviously helped along by being explored (I still don't have a clue how that works even after ten years here), but its a feature that does help me to discover new and interesting photographers, on an almost daily basis.

Another random shot thru glass image taken during a walk around London at night.

Thanks for looking

I wanted to have real coffee and I have an old coffeegrinder.

A little retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life — somewhere to relax and put your feet up with a good book, a fresh pot of coffee and some fruit cake. A few wild flowers add to the tranquility (blue Viper's Bugloss and pink valerian).

The coffee beans ARE floating.

Downward.

So I stopped them with a strobe.

Grind your own daily. Taste the magic.

Winter's fast approaching and the evenings are getting darker — perfect for a warming, candlelit shot. I love the interplay between candlelight and a darker scene — the darker the ambient light the stronger the effect of the candle's illumination on the scene.

HMM

the actual image you are looking at is approximately 1/4 long in real life. It's on a tiny little medallion I found at the bottom of an old coffee grinder

PS. I would like to think my friend Keith for helping me spell the last word in the title correctly. :)

Le Musée Le Secq des Tournelles

Il a été fondé en 1920. Il occupe l'ancienne église Saint-Laurent (datant des xve et xvie siècles). Il contient une collection de ferronnerieléguée par Henri Le Secq des Tournelles (1854-1925) et qui avait été commencée en 1862 par son père Henri Le Secq. L'ancienne église avait accueilli en ses murs de 1911 à 1920 le musée d'Art normand qui comptait déjà une partie de la collection des Le Secq des Tournelles. Le musée dispose d'une collection unique au monde de ferronnerie regroupant éléments d’architecture, enseignes, serrures, heurtoirs, moulin à café, outils, bijoux, objets de couture et de costume. Il a le label musée de France.

L’église Saint-Laurent

La chapelle Saint-Antoine est érigée en église en 1024. Elle est alors mentionnée dans les faubourgs de Rouen. Elle est sous le patronage de l’abbaye de Saint-Wandrille. L’église est incendiée en 1248. Elle est rebâtie de 1440 à 1482, la tour de 1490 à 1501. Le clocher s’écroule en 1520. Reconstruit, il souffre de la tempête de 1638 et de l’ouragan de 1683, qui endommage la flèche. Cette flèche, rétablie en 1703, est démolie en 1810. La paroisse Saint Laurent est supprimée en 1791 au bénéfice de la paroisse Saint Godard, dont l'église la jouxte, L'église Saint-Laurent, désaffectée, sert alors au club des Jacobins. Vendue comme bien national le 4 janvier 1803 à un particulier, elle sert de hangar et d’écurie et reste entre des mains privées jusqu'à la fin du XIXe siècle. En 1893, elle est achetée par la ville de Rouen, qui la transforme en musée en 1911. L'architecte rouennais Lucien Lefort intervient alors pour y effectuer d'importantes réparations (reprise en sous-oeuvre, fenestrages, portes, balustrades). fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musée_Le_Secq_des_Tournelles
