Rose & Pipe

Post by sethile »

Hope you all don't mind a little Friday afternoon digression...

Early this morning the sun was streaming onto my desk where my wife of 27 years had placed a beautiful arrangement. She is an avid and gifted gardener. I was enjoying a cup of strong French Roast and looking at how beautiful her work was, and also reflecting on how our lives have evolved. You know the drill... Young couple in love, newlyweds, busy parents, struggling to make a living and build a life, and now perhaps a bit more time to explore other things again. I thought how cool it was that she has time for gardening, and I have time for pipemaking. Then inspiration hit and I grabbed the camera:

Not only is she a wonderful gardener, but remains as beautiful as ever, and she’s even softening on the idea of a lathe! Am I blessed or what?

Very elegant, intimate and romantic photograph Scott! The thoughts behind it make the picture even more special.

Very nice Scott.
Congrats on the 27 years too! That's quite a milstone in ones life.

Your photo would sell to a stock photography house I'm sure.
Well done!
