Practicing for IP 215

Thiophene_ Guy

Utata's Iron Photographer challenge 215 introduced a meme new to me: Wabi-Sabi. There are many interpretations on the internet including one entitled "poverty appreciation". The writer's intent was to inspire thinking about living with less, but it also made me think of shabby which is contrary, I think. Along with that thought was one of an old window shade at the rear of my house. It rips easily at the touch, as we discovered one afternoon when a youngster drumming on it with a bit of flimsy plastic reduced it to tatters.

Requisite elements:
1 - one or two spoons
2 - something that evokes wabi sabi
3 - very muted color (saturation -60)
