Focus on Life: The View From Where I Stand

Or actually, where I stood last week!


This week's photo prompt from Sally Russick is: From Where I Stand. I thought some of the pictures I took at last week's Arts and Crafts Sale at the Catskill Fly Fishing Center and Museum would fit nicely. We artists who were there to sell our goods were a little bit on the fringe of the event, which included a casting contest and other fly fishing activities (but strangely, no fishing that we could see!)

But the two day event was a joy to attend, the area is scenic, and the weather was almost perfect. 

I set up my jewelry display between a potter and a painter. Everyone was very nice. People who stopped by to look and occasionally to buy seemed to appreciate the nature themes of many of my pieces.

Some of the vendors,


Some of my wares.

Another view, you can see the next booth.



And some more jewelry!

Sally is having some problems with her web site, so you may not be able to visit for a while, but you can use the links below to see what others have done with this prompt.

  3. Out door craft sales are fun when the weather is nice... think the worst one I ever did the temp was 43 C or 109.4 in Saskatchewan in June... It broke the previous high by over 10 degrees no one bought anything after about 11 am! That looked like a lovely venue!

  8. Beti - it did look like gorgeous weather. I loved seeing the photos of your booth. Were those by chance paint rollers you had the bracelets on? If so, what a clever idea!
