Dhaka, Bangladesh, 2011.

Fresh from photographing my wife's late paternal grandmother's Cooky Press gadget last week, this week I shot the tobacco pipes that her maternal grandfather left behind. They are an interesting piece of decor, I think, as these are only three from the dozen or so we have on a display rack. You might argue they aren't really 'handles' because they aren't what a pipe smoker would actually hold the pipe by. And you'd have an excellent point which didn't dawn on *me* until I was writing this caption. Think of them as mouth handles, perhaps, and we're all good.
Back in the day clay pipes were so common they were dropped pretty much everywhere. This one turned up in our garden when I was digging a a section over one time. I guess it must have been there for quite some years.
This is the end of a piece of plastic pipe that used to be attached to the tap on our water butt when we moved in.
It must have been outside exposed to the elements for quite some time as it is now quite brittle and I should have thrown it away long ago but it fits this weeks theme and I never thought it would be of any use, even for a photo.
This is actually 44 Laight Street in the Tribeca neighborhood of Lower Manhattan. According to StreetEasy, "Designed by Clinton & Russell Architects, the Renaissance Revival building was originally a bonded warehouse, later occupied by the pipe fitting maker, Grabler Manufacturing Company. Later converted to a condo in 2001, 38-44 Laight Street is located on a coveted cobble stone street."
A step further into the swamp of candid photographing. But she was almost asking for it! Smoking a pipe, too.
This pipe just begs to be photographed,aged and rusty a real beauty :-) The sky was a bonus,mean and moody

Yes, of course I know it's blurred. I even have a similar pic with his face in focus and the hat and pipe blurred. But somehow I prefer this one.
The first time back around town in a while, I was pleasantly surprised to encounter another pipe smoker. I mentioned how I have to make a note of people’s names these days or I forget. “You probably won’t forget mine,” he said with a smile, “ I’m Jack, Jack Russell. “ Marvelous. He went on to remind me that although I’ll probably find quite a few men with their pipes, I’ll be hard be hard pushed to find any lady pipe smokers. Now there’s a challenge!

Thank you very much for your visits, faves, and kind comments.
One of many such exhibits at Broseley's Pipeworks Museum.
The Crown Pipeworks, makers of clay tobacco pipes were abandoned in 1960, and as the buildings and equipment had not changed in 80 years the pipeworks became a true time capsule. In the years that followed the buildings slowly began to crumble however they were saved from demolition in the 1980s and were grade II listed. Open days are few and far between however, save for two heritage days when they are once again open for the public to enjoy.
