It is nice playing around the house with one's camera, actually makes you really look at stuff you just take for granted. That first ornamental thingy you bought in Japan, may be Vintage Chinese Wall decor, according to Google Lens.
I like your wife's succulent terrarium, very pretty indeed!
Thank you for sharing your rainy day photo session with us @coinjoe.
Yes it does. It is raining on and off again this weekend, so I may do something similar. That being Chinese wall decor would make sense, as the Okinawa people have just as much culture from China as they do from Japan. As far as the succulent, we have placed a UV lamp over it since the photo wsa taken as it was not getting enough lighting. Thank you for stopping by and reading. I hope to have more rainy day photos soon, but wish the rain would just go away and I could just share photos :-)
