The Hanging Teapot

Sometimes life sets us challenges that, er, challenge us [where is AI when you need it?] and I promised a friend that I would send her a picture of my hanging teapot. It’s hard to take a photo of a hanging teapot in all its shiny glory, especially when it hangs in a dark and gloomy kitchen. I tried my best using my phone camera, AND my posh camera. The lighting is very poor.

The first one was taken with my iPhone at probably a more interesting angle, and thus better light.
The second pic is a straight on shot with the posh camera. This is because I am more used to positioning my phone at odd angles. I felt a bit precious and formal with the proper camera.

Conclusion: Try to be a bit more relaxed with the posh camera!!

Oh, yes, I do have bunting in my kitchen – my inspiration is the Bake Off tent; it’s been up there since 2020 and needs a wash, plus I’m thinking of replacing it with a string of fairy lights.
The teapot was from a shop in St Ives in 1992 – I doubt the shop is still there.
