I’m kind of on a roll at my kitchen table these days right- so many of my photos have been taken here lately (most not posted). I discovered the afternoon light from the window a while ago- and more recently I’ve been entranced with the curve of my very ordinary kitchen chairs. This photo was NOT taken in lovely light and really posed a challenge in terms of exposure. I finally went with blowing out the background- maybe in afternoon light I could get a better background.
I shot this photo is response to a theme from my daily challenge group on Flickr- FRAMED. And what better frame than a kitchen chair?
I used simplistic, one of Kim Klassen’s lovely textures (2 layers- one at soft light, one multiply, reduced opacity) and am using this image for my Texture Tuesday link-up. Check out more images created with Kim’s textures by following the link at the bottom of the page.

Fabulous use of framing. And the background window mullions work to frame the shot as well. I think the treatment of the backlight is perfect. There is still some texture and color in the background so it isn’t completely blown out. nice.
Very nicely “framed”!
Totally awesome!!!!!
Love it! When i visited I thought your home was so warm and inviting. Just like your pictures that draw me in. I want to be sitting at your table with you.
I like this picture , soft , but the flowers pop…….good job !
Beautiful!
Hi, Melinda! Thanks for visiting me at Camper. I love your photo! I’m doing a V-8 smack up against my head saying, “Why didn’t I think of that?” I love the perspective through the chair and I love the whole “homey” (notice that is homey not homely) feeling here.
What a great view! I love how the chair back has framed it. Fantastic photo!
