not a plate, pot, or pan.... or any other utensil/item used for eating or cooking
not a watch nor anything that can be worn
not a pen or anything used to write with
not a flower pot or anything that has to do with a garden or plants

Sorry to be gone ALL day!
-Was offered the job by the end of the interview, and I accepted so i went through a brief overview of my duties.
-Went strait from the interview to the parks-&-Recs little league practices to take the scheduled individual and team photos for the teams (I'm the local photographer in charge of the team photos)
-Went strait from there to our current Bible study (youth 14yrs-25yrs) location to help setup our equipment (for songs) and then we had Bible study/fellowship/games
-After Bible study we all just lost track of time and had some awesome fun joking around and telling stories and laughing our heads off!
OK, to the SMGG..... no one has guessed so far.
nothing to do with camera lenses
nothing to with CD's but it IS a tray of some sort
nothing to do with phones
HINT: it is a tray of some sort and related to a certain type of camera!

I did paint it black (clone brush). Glare + noise + underexposure. I took the pic by holding my kit lens reversed in front of my body (one hand holding lens, one holding body/shutter). I'm too broke to buy myself reversing rings/extension tubes.
That said, nope to both guesses.
