The theme this month for one of my photo groups is 'collections'.

I was really in difficulty but had the idea of photographing a tray of nuts, bolts, screws etc in Ray's little plastic chest of drawers in the garage. You know: all those bits which just might come in handy!

A view on black lends this shot a certain aesthetic quality, I think............
Ha ha, David has got lots of collections like these. If they come in handy one day, how come we have got so many filling up the drawers etc in the garage.

I think all men (and maybe many women) have numerous drawers full of this "stuff"!

A great box of manly stuff -- you never know when they become so handy !! We have tons of such stuff in the garage ! and I have lots of sewing paraphernalia in my office upstairs - oh dear I wish I was not a hoarder !!

Well Ray wasn't there when I was taking the shot! I did have a few tries to get them looking so nice - still experimenting with the new camera!
