One of the bad things about growing grass in little pots is that it doesn’t last long. It has been dead for a while now, and since I started taking pictures of the tine before there was grass I figured it was appropriate to take some of the dead grass.
Straight out of camera. I love the golden hour.
Well last night I was just too exhausted to upload this picture, so I am still playing catch up. Hopefully I will actually be able to get today’s picture up today.
It has been a while since I have taken pictures of the tins, so I thought that it was time for one.
Yes, the grass tins again. I hope they aren’t getting boring. I got these chocolates in the mail from my mom a couple days ago, and thought this would be a fun little shoot. I had a hard time deciding on a picture, so I may post more on here later on (yes I know, I say that all the time.)
This is why I love growing grass. I get to cut it and feel productive for a few minutes and feel like I have something new in my house. Plus it just feels cool (yes, I am a strange person). I am hoping to make a stop motion of the pictures I took from this, which I am so so excited about! So keep your eyes out for that (hopefully tonight even).
As you can see the grass in the little tin pots is growing wonderfully. I love it, it makes me happy to come home from a long day and see the bright green. Yes, I am somewhat silly, but it is good that I get joy out of such tiny things isn’t it?
I know you have seen these before, but I planted grass seed in them and it started to grow so I figured it was ok to photograph them again. I am not completely loving this shot, but it is dark and threatening rain outside so I don’t want to go venture for another (at least as of right now). And I couldn’t decide on a crop, so I have included the full picture; feedback is greatly appreciated.
A couple of random tidbits about this image:
I so enjoy the house I live in mostly because of the huge amount of light that comes through the big kitchen windows in the afternoon. It is just beautiful, I love it.
I had to go to Goodwill for school a week ago, and I found these little tins while there, and I couldn’t resist buying them. Hopefully soon I will get some grass growing in them, I am very excited about it (I get excited about tiny things).
And lastly, this picture just makes me so happy for some reason. Part of it is the warm and bright sunlight. Part of it is the blue colors. I’m not completely sure, but when I look at it, it just relaxes and calms me. Again, it is the simple things that make me happy.
