Some old marbles my mom wanted to throw away... But I love the texture of these too much, I had to do something to be able to remember them (because as I don't play with marbles usually I'll throw them away I guess...)
They are set on one of our castle walls. I love that place!
By the way: the crop is intended and the walls were that crooked, I had a hard time making them stay where I want them -.-

Woah, for once, I'm actually not sure what to say about this shot, kinda abstract...
But the texture and detail from the marbles and background is wonderful, it definitely has a rugged, gravelly feel to it, great lighting too. Well done, faved! :)
