Cocktail Sticks...

...in a jug on the kitchen counter.

It's been raining all day (it's still raining) so the planned photo outing didn't happen - this is what you get instead. Lit in a dark kitchen with a small LED hand-lamp and exposed at ISO6400.

I think you know how to view this...

If this is the quality what we get when your planned shot doesn't happen lets hope it doesn't happen more often! Artistically and technically first rate. Fav
