20th August 2013 Shine the light

All the shots I took this morning in the sunshine were useless - just one of those days. About 9pm I suddenly realised I hadn't got a shot for today so went into the kitchen looking for something to shoot. I opened a cupboard and a box of straws fell out - perfect!! Backlit with a torch.

Many thanks for all your lovely comments - I do appreciate them all!! Where does the time go - I decided today I would spend the afternoon catching up with all your shots but once again life got in the way. I had a very unexpected visit from a friend I haven't seen for two years. It was lovely - we sat in the garden and just talked. I do miss my friends since I moved to the East Midlands and don't see them often enough!! So once again I am sorry I am getting further behind with my comments!! Help!!!
This is such a neat abstract Pam! Very well done! :)
