Art unexpected (2)
I really enjoy the atmosphere at Caffe Fiore/Old Ballard (5405 Leary Ave NW) – lots of natural light; botanical-themed, lighted interior signs; tables and chairs of rich wood; delicate glass light fixtures suspended from sculptural metal hardware.* (Not to mention the delicious coffees and teas, the Mighty O Donuts, and the great service.)
I was pleasantly surprised today by the artful shadows on the large round table in back:
Yep, more blurry photos. I can’t blame these on my Panasonic Lumix ZS1. I took these (and the accessories photo from the other day) with my Palm Treo 850. There are a lot of things I love about my Treo – it’s a great phone and handheld (palmtop?) computer – but photo quality isn’t one of them. (My Treo’s a couple of years old, so I’m not including a link.)
*I might try to get some good interior shots of Caffe Fiore one of these days.
