Description
This large ceramic planter (it had a fig tree in it) was glazed with a white crater glaze which looked stunning against the blue wall behind it. I also like the red on the interior lip.
"Crater glazes are generally produced by adding compounds to the glaze which will liberate gases during the firing cycle. As the volatile gases strive to reach the surface of the glaze, they tend to form bubbles which break through the surface and pop, leaving craterlike cavities in the glaze.

Very nice angle and overall composition!
Denise Clark replied:
Strange thing. I really hated crater glazes when I was a potter but as a photographer ...a different perspective...life's strange. Appreciate your support.

Love the colors, the lines that your composition choices isolate, and especially the strong textural interest in this one, Denise. This is one of my two Picks of the Day in the Best of Minimalism in Photography group for October 6.

Thank you so much Karen. To be honest I hadn't seen that so you have opened up another way of looking. Much appreciated.

Lovely work. (I've been thinking of buying a fig tree for our house. They are supposed to be wonderful air cleansers!!) F/L++

Moreton Bay Figs are native to our area and grow into massive trees. My husband does Bonsai and finds great satifaction specialising in figs with the buttress and aerial roots looking great in miniature, Glad you like this one Nancy and appreciate the comment
