Patina, is a lovely word.... and copper objects are much nicer with it than all polished and shiny

I feel like rubbing my hands all over this bowl. I love copper.

It is said that it's healthy drinking milk using copper bowls or glasses!

Nice shot!

A joy to own and make wonderful jams and marmelade!!!

Patina...nice word. And I'm reminded of the French "patiner" = to skate: our eye skids over the surface lightly taking in the forms. Flares are difficult to control in items like this copper bowl. (Take that from a Ham House ghost).

Patinas are great for B&W....indeed the last few shots would probably have looked well as B&Ws.

A bit difficult to clean when not in use for jam making! Beautiful shot.

Great dof on this one! I also really like your new banner shot!

Andy is in town for the weekend and I'm about to go out to dinner with the kids. Why do I think about filling this up with wine?

Bob,
Wait, let me grab my purse, I'll be right there. Vin blanc in that bowl pour moi!!!

For all my French friends, I've learned something new today. I had no idea that jam/marmalade was made in copper bowls! Guess that's a clue that I've never made any. :)

Chuckeroon,
I"ll agree with the BW for la Louvre but as you know from my email, I didn't think this bowl made the transition as well. THought provoking. Now I"m trying other shots in BW as well.!
