Ode to an old tool box

Contribution for The Sunday Challenge #404: Knolling

Contribution for The 50 Images-Project: Still Life 41/50

Because man need toys tools! =D

To lit the setting, I used a bright light therapy lamp reflected from the white ceiling and walls. Using a camera remote control app on smart phone was very helpful.

On notes (PiPs) there are some old shots of mine to show how inspiring tools can be ;-)

I really like the way you have chosen to display the tools diagonally, Sami. You always think outside the box. You'd certainly be a handyman for DIY with this toolbox. ;-)

Thank you, Amelia =)

The idea indeed became from that linked image taken by Jim Golden ;-)
Without seeing that I probably would not even considered it. What I like on this kind of approach is especially the so called "military (oblique) perspective":
