Ancient Expresso coffee maker with a lot of patina on it. I'll photograph this memory-laden relic until I get bored. Then, maybe I'll polish it and photograph it some more.

Oh, yes. the details:
The coffee maker was placed on a black bookshelf in front of a window. Placed the camera, sideways, on the bookshelf and moved it back and forth to try for an unusual, but interesting image.

Ran it through Nik's Color Efex a couple of times - Bi-Color User Defined filters with various colors of blue and brown. Finished up with a tad of painting to tone down hot spots.
Merged all and sharpened.

The lighting is beautiful (I especially like the incandescent tones on the left), but there are lot's of tasty textures in there, too!

Lovely lighting. I like the toning you have achieved with the Nik Color too.

Interesting. Normally, I don't like tilt, but it works here.

Lovely lighting and composition. I love how one object can be shot in different ways and be interesting in all of them.
