oh helen, these pieces are wonderful!
+ your compositions makes them even better
they remind me a bit of my favorite plate, it's a used japanese plate i got at a thrift store a while ago, i had two and one broke, i use the one left almost every morning for my toast, and i am always afraid to break it :(

They were my Grandmother's, and now my Mother's. She wanted to do a series of still life studies but didn't want to carry them to class for fear of damaging them. i offered to take a series of photographs instead, and here they are. What a shame your other plate broke :-(

oh! a family matter, and so they eventually will be yours, huh? and great job on the pix as usual you do, maybe we can see the still life results later?
