A bit of an abstract photo today, taken with an Olympus EPL-1, these are my daughters Hama Beads in up close. Taken by simply pointing the camera in  the top of the jar in natural light and for once using the in-camera jpg.

    I like to experiment with all sorts of elements. Its such a bum when what my mind sees doesn't make it to the photo but my frustration propells me to learn something new about my camera settings. So, I guess, its all good! :-). Thanks for sharing your journey!
