A sense of scale

offcntrIt seems like every time I load the glaze kiln (the "Big Kiln" as it's known at Club Mud), I take some pictures to try and give you a sense of how much work goes into the firing, both number of pots and, you know, work.
I take pictures of the kiln car at various points. I take pictures of the pots on the table, the over-loaded ware carts. Anything white-glazed and painted in this kiln room? Mine. But all those pictures still don't seem to give you an idea of what I'm dealing with.
So let's try and give you a sense of scale. I'm just about six feet tall.
That's right. This stack of pots and kiln furniture is taller than I am.
That's a lotta pots.
