This month lets have lots of fun.
  Show Pots & Pans.
Knives and Forks.
  Kettles and Teapots. 
Anything non food you would find in the kitchen

 ecurb - The Devil

Oooooohhh.  Good idea!

My camera is visiting a friend today, but I'll start thinking about what to shoot when it comes home!  (Probably drunk, with a bunch of silly stories to tell!)

great Tara looking forward to your uploads.

BTW you can thank my Mum for this idea.  I was talking to here last weekend.  I said I don't have a clue what do do for this month.

 ecurb - The Devil

And she was sitting in the kitchen while you were talking, and looked around ...

... it's a great idea!

"If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough."  ...  Robert Capa

yep

 ecurb - The Devil

I'm already getting ideas ... hope I don't forget them in the meantime!

LOL...That is for sure Ronnie but I can not use achived shots. I just missed a start date by a month or so some even older...bugger and I realy don't want to re-shoot a plates and cups and forks. The plate set is very expensive what I have and affraid to do some damamge while I shoot them again. But I will follow this tread full on.

seeya  Tunde

This could be cool, your Mom had an awesome idea.

Weekend pass time, shooting for the august forum challenge. "My fork collection"...we all have one set at least...lol.

Ohhhhh Great idea!  AND I'll get to play, my new computer was delivered today so I'll be back up and running soon. I've been without for about 2 weeks now and I'm sooooooooo craving photoshop stimulation! (not to mention my camera memory cards are getting pretty full).

Wonderful work Tunde, you've really gotten this challenge off to a high standard beginning.

Nice!  I like the one blue stem.

Hey RJ!  Yup ... time for you to get busy with the camera in the kitchen!! 

"If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough."  ...  Robert Capa

LOL...Tara I named this capture "Hard to blend in" actually it was a mistake from me to put a blue glass in, later on I swaped it to the suitable white (see trhough) glass.

Yeah Ronnie, I curious what you ganna come up with, so kitchen time...LOL. It is not an order just teasing.

seeyus  T

 ecurb - The Devil

Come people, I'm sure every one of you must have been in a kitchen today.

 ecurb - The Devil

Next time you go in take your camera with you and take a few shots, then post them here, simples!

 ecurb - The Devil

Darn i forgot.. I will do it tomorrow, I promis, but now it is way over midnight :-)  Good night :)

I have more, but I thought I'd spread them out over the month a little bit!  :)

"If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough."  ...  Robert Capa

Goood Morning! This is some souveniers my husband bought in Aden in Yemen for his mother in 1953.

This is from the same place as the first one. It is just standing there in the cupboard and is never used.

I am so sorry.  I forgot to check on the size of my first post, so I am afraid it is a bit too large. Unfortunately it is too late for me to change it. I have changed the second post, so it should be ok.

Don't worry the the system squeezed those to in.  It always tell you when it's to big.  Good photos btw

 ecurb - The Devil

The One I took of the earthen ware pot and wooden spoons.  My Mum thinks is a rubbish photo ( I thought it was artistic)  any way she has taken another one.  She says she will post it in a day or two, to show what it looks like properly.  Mums ahh!!!  They think they always know better!

 ecurb - The Devil

HAHA!!  Id like to see her version of it :-)

My cork screw (bottle opener) was *whining* that he worked too hard, so I decided to give him the night off and WHERE do I find him?   Taking a bubble bath and soaking in my sink!  What the hell?!?!?

Very good and very funny photo. In France, we call this kind of corkscrew is called a "de Gaulle" (look at it when its "arms" are raised and you'll understand why) Strangely, mine is over busy too :-)

Joe, that is good and fun idea with a shooting mood...lol.

HEHEH! I love that one Joe :-)

This is much better than my Sons arty effort.

LOL @ Ann and David!    We all have our own vision.  I would take away the wooden spoons, turn the mortar and pestle around 90 degrees, and shoot it from the front (with the pestle to the right) ... and then not show you the whole thing! 

Love the water on the cheese grater, Joe!

Love having peeks into everyone's kitchens, cabinets, freezers, sinks and whatnot. Does that make me voyeuristic?

So where do they go when a photograph leaves you speechless? 

Ok I finally got my act together, new computer is where I want it, keyboard is hooked up, cat is no longer standing in front of the monitor so I can see what I'm doing...

So here is this morning's effort.

Wowww ... great stuff, everybody! 

What happened to Ronnie?  I thought he was going to brave his way into the kitchen with his camera.  Hey RJ!  Hey!  Wake up, Sweetie! 

"If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough."  ...  Robert Capa

Excelent recent entries keep them coming...

seeyus  T

I don't think Ronnie knows what a kitchen is!  Ronnie it's the room with the refrigerator in.  You know the big cold cupboard that lights up when you open the door you get food from it.

 ecurb - The Devil

Aha that's what it's called )...Only beer in my fridge!!!Kitchens and me don't mix mate :) Actually, I had rather forgotten about the challenges, I'll have to see what I can come up with :)

It takes one tree to make a billion matchsticks, but one match to burn a billion trees

Excellent!  Glad we were able to get your attention, Sweetie!  There must be SOMEthing in the kitchen you can identify!  LOL!  Bottle opener?    Corkscrew?  Shot glass? 

"If your pictures aren't good enough, you're not close enough."  ...  Robert Capa

LOL auntie, trust you :)... I will come up with something soon, and Pssst!...It won't involve wearing anything on my head, Promise :b_grin:

Dang.  That's one of my favorite shots!    I actually saved that one to my hard drive.

Nice closeup, David!  I love the glass and chrome.

@ RJ:  Do you want me to send it to you, Sweetie?  That colander is classic.  You might need it again one day!

What a great one Tunde, those colours are really neat!

It takes one tree to make a billion matchsticks, but one match to burn a billion trees

I like this!  Bright and colourful!

 ecurb - The Devil

 WOW!  All of the recent entries are great and I LOVE the colors in yours Tunde!

Still got a few days left!  I'm planning next month.  Should be fun but a little harder.  I want to try and stretch your photographic abilities. I hope you will  all up for the challenge.

 ecurb - The Devil

As long as it keeps me out of the kitchen, bring it! :b_grin:

It takes one tree to make a billion matchsticks, but one match to burn a billion trees

It may do it may not.  It will depend on what you want to photograph.  You could be in the kitchen, up on the roof, in the garden.  Or in the sea.  That will be up to you.  Intrigued!  I hope so!  All will be revealed soon.

 ecurb - The Devil

lol...Ronnie....and long as it is keeps me out of the garage or shed...lol.

seeyus  T

Tunde lol!, you may have to go to the shed and shoot spiders, up for it? LOL!..I am sure it'll be a great challennge david, but as for the roof, with my fear of heights that's 100% out of the question :)

Here's some dishwasher tablets, (From the kitchen) arrrrgggggg!!! I thought they made a cool pattern when arranged like this.

Ummmmm, Ronnie.....
why does your dishwasher need tablets? Did you give it a headache?

They say a picture is worth a thousand words...

So where do they go when a photograph leaves you speechless? 

No I didn't Yvonne, it had been on the booze all night and had a hangover, hehehehe

LOL!!! ANd i love the dishwasher tablets and I laugh of the comments to that..

Awesome wierd straw, Joe :-)

Good one Joe, love the deep Irish color.

Ronnie, before I read your coment on the dishwasher cubes I thought it was a cooling plate for hot pots, normaly they use 'leftover' tiles...lol. Nice abstract.

About spiders, well let just say I leave it to others to capture it. I only like them on pictures, they not move!

seeyus  T

SO i better post my last one. This is from my refridge. My grandchildren made these magnet cartoons, or what you call them.  I hope they will do.

Tunde, I was almost going to send an animation of a spider for you in here, just to prove you were wrong, but i didnt. Arnt you happy ?  :-)))

@ Helanker...lol...I am very happy...lol. Thank you to save me from nightmares.
