Gardening with Soule

   For Camera Critters I thought I would show critters from the show.  The theme was “Around the World.”  This was part of India’s display which also makes it fit the subject “Foriegn” for Photohunter.  Amazing what creativity people have.  All of the exhibitions were beautiful scenery to gaze at.  Just gorgeous.Â

Found this guy at the Madison Bouckville Antique show last summer.  It is an old soup terrine.  It says Italy on the bottom. It appears pretty old, but even if it isn’t, as soon as I saw that face I knew I had to get it.  That and the aqua color on the bottom made it irresistible to [...]
