When it’s steaming outside, we go inside to take photographs. Most stores don’t mind. One such store is Pottery World in Rocklin. We look for a store that has an array of subject to photograph, and recently we went to Pottery World.
Here are some examples of what we found.
I like to go in close and sometimes crop even further. I’m looking forward to October when we can stay outside longer! It’s been a hot summer!

These are great experiments and excellent results. I particularly liked all the water photos. Photographing fountains always lead to great results as your photos show.

Very different forms of pottery here. Interesting. Ad with us – it’s been a cold summer. I sense neither of us is happy with the hand we’ve been dealt.

They carry very high end stuff, so it’s a great place to photograph textures, etc. I’ll take a cold summer if it’s not damp. Yours is probably damp?? I can put on layers of clothes, but there’s just so much I can take off! This last week has been in the 80s and 90s F. What a relief!

That would be easy to believe after the chilly summer we’ve had. I’ve hardly had an excuse to wear a summer dress.

I love the close-up details Anne! I’m surprised though that the shops don’t mind you taking so many photos. I guess they think it’s good publicity for them?

Thanks Sarah! Yes, when I publish my blog, they do get publicity. And, of course, sometimes we buy something!

When I saw the header photo, I saw myself on any of those horribly hot days. That’s how I feel!🤣
