I didn't do any photographs today - spent the whole day editing stories from last week and earlier this week. Here is a detail photograph I took at the glassblower's studio yesterday. It is a disk of clear molten glass fresh from the crucible, sitting on a graphite block, where it will cool slightly, and have a perfectly flat bottom. While still soft, a vase will be pressed into it, and this disk becomes the base for the vase. What amazing color - I have never seen anything like this - it looks like a view into another world.

I love the last line of your comments on this photo: like a view into another world, or something like that. Reading those words actually made me look at the picture differently!
