Collage by Gemma Wiseman ~ My verandah finds a use for a little plastic.
The roofing shelting and side wall have a form of plastic which creates unusual lighting effects in the early morning and late evening.
This morning when I took these shots, my husband cast a shadow on the plastic wall (top left). He created a strange, eerie, translucent view of the greenery behind it.
The arced shadows are cast by the back of our cane verandah chairs.
And then, of course, there is the inevitable plastic watering pot.

Collage by Gemma Wiseman ~ The plastic revolution.
There is the plastic money you have when you don't have money.
But then there are also other plastic convenience cards such as those donating a part of your purchases to the community or accumulating a few rewards for yourself.
I thought it was ironic that I found a plastic tag in the plastic pot holding my jade (money) plant.

The plastic panels give an interesting series of shadows to the deck, I imagine.
