On a cold and frosty day I looked around for something to photograph in the house. This is something I've done on several occasions over the years and each time I do it there are fewer and fewer fresh subjects - because I've photographed most of them before. But then my eye fell upon a present that my young grandson had bought for me: a game of noughts and crosses comprising ten glass beads (clear and blue in place of the noughts and crosses) and a bag with a grid on that serves as both a container and the playing surface. Here they are illuminated from behind by my transparency/negatives light box.
