Testing my new light tent, the Square Perfect SP500. This is a rusty old pair of scissors that I use to open boxes.
I was exiting the ABC Store in Monticello Marketplace when I saw this at the lamppost next to where I had parked. I assume someone's scissors fell out of their minivan/suv and someone put them on the lamppost. That's my bag of mini bottles of SKYY Vodka next to the scissors.
I used a flashlight and a time exposure to light up a pair of scissors. I also used an old dress and some trash bags for black backdrops and broke a $1 mirror for the base.
I got 18 scrapbooking scissors and the turn-table holder for $20.00 at a church thrift store. Quite the bargain, I think!
Wandering around a friends garden looking for texture. Found this pair of rusty old scissors on an old dustbin lid.

Brian Machon starts his work day by packing a bag, jumping on a train and ringing doorbells.
He is greeted with handshakes, kisses, hugs and hellos.
At 45, Machon has been practicing his craft for over 20 years and has spent much of that time in his clients homes. His customers come from diverse backgrounds and he often develops close personal relationships with them.
Machon's own family lives in Copenhagen Denmark, where at the age of 16, he left home because of an abusive step-father.
"I hated being home. I always hated being home. I always hated him," says Machon.
After finishing school, Machon left Denmark and moved to New York City where he slowly generated the business he has today.
Then three years ago, Machon felt a pain in his chest. The doctor said he was two to three weeks from a major heart attack.
This close call raised questions, specifically about his biological father, a man he'd never met. Machon wondered if he also had heart disease, and if so, what other diseases he might need to be prepared for.
He also thought it might just be interesting to meet him.
Machon has watched his clients' families grow, and he has grown close enough to many of them to develop lasting friendships that extend beyond his role as their hairstylist.
His clients ask how his health is, and if he wouldn't mind changing a light bulb before he leaves. He listens to to their confessions, makes dinner, and helps their kids with their homework.
"They become like my extended family."
