Friday shoot out: Silhouettes
Assignment - October 9 - SILHOUETTES

The first photo was taken from the floor shooting up the glass ceiling of the Nanyang Executive centre in NTU in Singapore.
In a Chinese kitchen, a wok, like a cleaver is all you need to stirfry, stew, braise and boil soup.
For a laugh, my wok is not made in China, but in Italy. May be Marco Polo borrowed the idea, like the way it's been disputed that he borrowed the idea of noodles and called it their own spaghetti,
Palm trees are easy to draw, often I just draw coconut trees swaying in the sea breeze. Little huts of attap hatch. So idealic, until the dreadful word tsunami robs me of my tranquil setting.
Lovely silhouette!
ReplyDeleteThe word "tsunami" has been particularly dreadful lately. Be well!
ReplyDeleteThe flamelike background of the wok is perfect!
ReplyDeleteI like the second photo more. You have also a hand of an artist. Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteAnn, these are great. My favorite one is the wok. It is lovely. I would hang it on the wall in my ktichen.
ReplyDeleteNo words can describe what a beautiful job you have done! Every time we have a new assignment I am amazed...this was hard for me...
ReplyDeleteLove the shot of the wok! I adore my wok, but have been coveting a larger one at a new restaurant supply store in town.
ReplyDeleteI agree, that wok shot is terrific. Like the palm trees, too!
ReplyDeleteall wonderful shots Ann!!
ReplyDeleteThose are very beautiful photos, Ann.
ReplyDeleteIt's been disputed that Marco Polo brought noodles back to Italy from China.
Darn, that's something I'd always believed.
I live in a tsunami zone as well...hope all is well in your area.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are great - I really like the wok shot. Funny that it is made in Italy!
glass ceiling is my favorite. nice shots!
ReplyDeleteLove the glass ceiling. It's a great graphic!
ReplyDeleteNice one, Ann. My favorite is the wok in the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteI like the photo of the 'italian' wok - the states also have several kinds of woks - all made in China because I think everything you buy in the States is made in China, I've not seen woks in Brasil - course I don't shop in high class / high cost stores so maybe I have just missed them here - brought my own - I love to make stir fry. great shots for this week's FSO
ReplyDeleteOooh I like that last one, the circles make it interesting.
ReplyDeleteI love that second shot!!
ReplyDeleteThese are great - I never would have guessed the wok, I thought it was an exotic fountain. Just goes to show how our eyes can fool us.
ReplyDeleteAnn, these are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteExcellent Ann! I love the palm tree dark against the sky.
ReplyDeleteI love the one of the wok!
ReplyDeleteNice work Ann! Love the last shot, great composition!
