 These are the anodized handles to a small set of finger driven drill bits. Taken with a single 60w desk lamp, bounced off white board to lessen reflections. I had quite a few pieces of white cloth over the lamp (to soften the light and reflections even more) so the lighting was quite subdued, thus the long exposure.

Interesting colors and patterns. The tight focus creates a nice effect on the outer cylinders.
