Congratulations on this nice "time freeze", well lit and framed. At the "what does not fit" game, here is my contribution: my mother always told me never to cut paper with the hair scissors "...it will dull them".

Only saw the thumbs of this challenge and never voted. Very happy you got a ribbon; you deserved one! This is a beautiful picture with gorgeous lighting. It is also very original and well-conceived. Like the nostalgic feel of the toning. Great job and congrats!

Weird light on a carpet? Not sure I understand the subject, but the colors are pleasant.

Oops. Didn't have time to put in any comments before the challenge so here they are:
I don't work at an office or even have a home office so this challenge wasn't an easy one. I happened to be cleaning the attic that week and started running into all these antique office tools which gave me the idea to put them all together.
The "desk" is the vanity from a bedroom suite purchased by my grandparents just before he went to the war. He served on a destroyer in the Pacific, and my grandmother saved the paper. The picture is of her brother who also served in WWII.
The tape dispenser came from my grandfather's desk and is very old although I'm not sure how old. Apparently transparent tape came into use in the 30s. The lamp and phone are two old garage sale finds that both work, and the fan is a reproduction of a 1940s fan.
It's kind of like a "where's waldo" picture I guess in that everyone wanted to find something that doesn't fit. I'm just glad to see people spent that much time looking at it!
