Tin Can

Cheltenham, Glos

While getting dinner ready tonight (mmm....chili!!) the afternoon sun came through the windows and illuminated the kitchen, glancing off a couple of half-full washing up bottles I had lying around

I spotted this empty tin can making somewhat of a reflection - "just the dab for tonight's Challenge shot" I thought, so after a quick bit of rearranging, here we are!! It's almost 'Blue Peter' in its amateurish creativity and simplistic execution :o))

Minimal processing - a smidge of a Curve, some cloning out of distracting splodges and that's about all....Monday 15th's entry to the June Challenge; for other Pbasers getting close to metal this month, possibly while getting dinner ready, click here

What a colourful tea you had!! Blue-Peter is where it's at, double-sided sticky-tape and toilet-roll tubes next. Hmm, they're not metal though, are they?!? lol
