Today's challenge is Knolling: Knolling photography involves capturing images of objects grouped together and arranged neatly.

Origin of Knolling: While people have been arranging objects neatly for centuries, the specific technique of knolling and definition of this technique only came about in 1987. It was first coined by Andrew Kromelow, who worked in a furniture fabrication shop where chairs were being designed for Knoll, known for its angular designs.

Kromelow worked as a Janitor, and kept tools tidy rather than leaving them lying around or just jumbled together. He arranged the tools parallel and at right angles to one another, spread out, so that all tools could be easily seen and found at once. He named the process Knolling because the strong angles were similar to that of the strong angles and parallel lines found in Knoll furniture.

I have just started to collect sea-washed glass. So far only green, white and soft turquoise, and in varying degrees of smoothness.
