New personal best..and a top 10! Thank you all.
My original idea was for a raspberry in a bunch of blueberries, but the fruit from the store was not very good. So, I went down to my basement and looked around.

Good idea - I like the colour contrast.

Nice idea, but I think you got a bit over exposed... the exposure makes the shot look very flat to me.

More a fitting than a nut.....and completely unrelated to the pile of mostly wood screws. But definitely alone in that crowd!!! LOL!!!

Very original. I'd have preferred a better arrangement of the screws.

I'm sorry your nuts are lonely. I'm sure you'll find someone to keep them company one of these days. Don't give up hope.

To balance out that terrible joke, I gave you a good rating.
