When I saw the contest, this immediately popped into my head. Ended up spending an entire afternoon looking for marbles at several different stores (I had lost mine :laughing:). I found a really cool set at Smith's Variety in Mountain Brook. The set had an antique look to it. 8-)

That glow is one of the things I love about the way this turned out. I was thinking B/W with selective color for this shot, but the more I see this, the more I'm happy that I didn't go that route.:)
:iconwobblyspackle:
I do too!. I was surprised my point and shoot was able to get that much depth. :)

I couldnt tell you how many hours I spent around a ring shooting marbles. Of course you just had to have a Crown Royal sack to put them in when you where done
:iconwobblyspackle:
I don't think I ever played the right way, but I did have a lot of fun. And yes, I also had the Crown Royal bag to put them in. I'm not sure where those bags came from because neither of my parents really drank. :laughing:

hahaha My grandfather used to have a sip everyday. it took him forever to finish the bottle so we would have to wait to get the bag for a long time but all the greandkids had a bag full of marbles lol
