You are a teacher ?

....I'm afraid it's worse than a teacher... it must be a maths teacher!

LOL @ cocor!!!

math teacher?

Yup a Primary School teacher. The big focus out here in Australia is Maths and English but we are trained to teach everything up to Year 6.

I liked Maths - It was my fave subject

NOOOOOOO! This would be the ultimate nightmare for me. All those kids.....OMG! Ill take slow death by fire ants any day!

Some days I think I would prefer the Fire Ants too :p

How old are you? You haven't learned your math tables yet?

I love how you have composed this photo. The shadow and lighting with the colors is very nice! It looks well thought out. Well done! GL! (-)

Cheers for all the encouragement.
@ Kyricom - I am 28 and they are still a struggle - hence why I am still on my 1's 2's 3's and 4's :p

Well... keep plugging away... you'll get them!

great idea, shame it isn't sharper.

well crap! If I'd a known that was chrome I would have had this shot way before! LOL Great idea author but I agree with friiskiwi that I wish it was sharper. Can you retake? I'll hold my vote.

nice, at first look I thought the photo was full of noise and then realised it was sawdust.

Yeah, me too, friiskiwi

great job.. Love it!!!

Thanks for the comments!

Amazing image|

great shot...moment in time...

nice

Thank you everyone

Congrats for your second place!

excellent shot, right on theme.............well done, and good luck.

Yup I was guessing you. Based on first impression, you know. This is very nice! The table saw with the wood shavings to show like it was just finished off is a nice touch. GL!

Thanks guys, my wife's grandfather makes these, they are music boxes. He was quite disturbed by my putting those wood shavings in the shot because "a table saw wouldn't make those" it was pretty funny how put out he seemed to be by my "ignorance"

Nice Idea and shot, just wish that the tools at the front were also sharp.
