Keeping with my attempts to learn to love grey I have here opted for shiny silvery things!
This silver water jug in the Jaipur Palace is one of the largest silver artifacts in the world. Red car with a chrome hood ornament (at Burnaby ‘Hat’s Off Day’, after the downpour).Silvery reflection in a glass high-rise in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. An old silver sword sheath at the Museum in Galway, Ireland. Thermal glass drinking vessels at the Architecture Museum in Rotterdam. A modern silver (chrome and polished steel?) sculpture in Brussels, Belgium. Blue bucket full of tiny silvery fish caught in the morning tide in Koh Lanta, Thailand. The Frank Gehry designed Guggenheim in Bilbao with his signature silvery titanium swoops, and a sculpture of shiny chrome bubbles in front.This car isn’t silver but it’s so shiny that it could be any colour and still reflect the grey overhead lighting!Silver leaf transfer paper adds a bit of sheen to this painting of pebbles.Two shots of the silvery Soumaya Museum in Mexico City. This challenge had me playing with words and I discovered that that if I was thinking ‘glimmer’ ‘glamourous’ and ‘gleam’ I was associating it with gold, and ‘shimmer’, ‘sheen’ and ‘shine’ was associated with silver. Or is that just me?
