  great theme image, Michele! I think you must have some great photo ops of your husband hand crafting wooden objects like the treasure chest. Very cool that he does that type of hobby!

  Great subject, Michele. I can almost smell the scent of freshly cut wood. And the textures of both the sawdust and curls of wood are excellent.

  Such a simple subject yet so rich in detail! I can almost smell the wood! I bet the treasure chest could come in handy for photos too :o)
