Here's a first for me, rather than delve through the library, a contest topic that got me composing a picture. My grandfather kept bees and I inherited some of his beekeeping tools. So, here's my entry for 'tools of the trade' contest. This is a smoker, to sooth the bees, to help collect the honey.

I like your studio. Nice tribute to your grandfather.
