Hanging beekeeping gloves
We’ve been selling off our beekeeping equipment in preparation for becoming nomadic. The other day Nicole pointed out some beekeeping gloves hanging over the top of the shower after having been washed. I think it was the way they were shaped like hands that caught her attention. Myself I was more caught by the light, the rich colours of the leather, and the fine detail.

I worked with them for half a day or so. This one got closest to satisfying me.

I worked it a little, burning in the upper right hand corner and reducing the tonal range of a small area of the bottom where the shower door was presenting some distracting sparkles, but ultimately I think the composition is just not what I was looking for.

No, eerie I guess wasn’t what you were going for, but at least it’s good advertising for selling the gloves!
