 I left this too late again ... but loads of good excuses, and I did try a totally different idea yesterday.
A friend of mine has quail eggs, which I asked her if I could have a few for this shoot. The nest is man made, I found this funny fibrous clump on the veranda yesterday, it may actually have been part of a small nest at one time, not sure. The books are little miniature books, The watch faces are old, broken wrist watches of various sizes which I "confiscated some time ago from my brother. A piece of string, some cardamon pods to fill the empty space and pieces of feathers I always collect.

Time is such an interesting concept. Does anybody really understand it? We measure it, we try to explain it, write about it, it dictates life and yet we can not grasp it.

Congrats on the yellow. I really love this and it was my top pick. I have a bit of a reservation about the 2" limit - especially the piece of string.

Giving this my top vote and really hope you saw the "nothing larger than 2" " in the description. Setting, tones, and lighting so pleasing.

I love this but feel that the yellow cast throughout dulls the image
