Theme Thursday: Kitchen: Mine Is Closet-Like


Photo Taken By E, January 28, 2009.
My closet-like kitchen is great if one is interested in economy of motion and efficiency. If, however, you are a kitchen diva or metromale that needs every gadget under the sun with which to concoct cuisines, there isn't room. That fact alone leaves me having to get creative in how much I cook and store...
My cats consider the kitchen their domain, particularly the window sill, top of the refridgerator and the inside of a very warm dryer just as the clothing or linens are removed...

Meditative Scene

Photo taken by E, September, 2008.


This was taken the same day I found and photographed the seahorse in my previous post. Water seems to be a recurring theme in my life as I have always lived geographically close to it. I enjoy its many forms, whether white-capped in a roiling storm, choppy on a cloudy day or serene and almost meditative, as it is here.

As I noted in comments to a reader when she inquired how I was able to recollect the decorative doorway I had photographed during a particularly grueling physical therapy session, scenes such as this often come to mind if I can get into the meditative state that helps me focus on something other than the pain that ensues from therapy as well as sometimes simply living.

Apart from that, I also enjoy finding things that tantalize the eye as well as the mind and spirit, and while I make no claims about being a good photographer, it is interesting to experiment. Another intriquing element of any visual medium is the viewer; what I see and how I see it may not be what another notices at all.

Until Next Time...
