Those of you with granite counter tops (or those of you with friends and family that installed granite counter tops), will know the saga of choosing the right granite. There are so many to choose from that when my mother did her counters over it took months, perhaps close to a year, to choose exactly the right granite. Ever since that endless span of time when I would get a daily update about granite colors (that I had never seen, given that I was living in Germany at the time), I have had an “eye” for granite.
So, a few weeks ago, while we were staying with Alex’s parents in Oregon, I noticed the absolutely stunning granite that his mom had put in their kitchen. Kind of a gold and silver flecked with slightly blue overtones. Just beautiful. Of course I had to show my mom, who has a darker, mahogany and terracotta based granite to go with her natural brick flooring.
While I was taking my photos of the granite, I noticed the shadow of a drinking glass on the counter and thought it would make an interesting shot:
What kind of shadows have you seen lately?
Wow – great shot of the glass and shadow!
Hey – you are in Connecticut. Did not know that you were originally from there. So am I!!!
Happy Weekend.
Oh nice entry for this week
I really like it!
The granite is lovely. I was outside earlier today and saw shadows from trees, my daughter, and myself.
Very good! That is beautiful granite!
How great that you had this shadow photo! I like the look of the cut glass, was it crystal? Great photo! My photo is up, please come and visit
I swear the shadow almost sparkles. It does look like crystal!
Great shot. I’ve seen so many interesting pictures today. Yours is one of the top.
