Something to Use in the Garden
This is fun! I'm getting all bollixed up with the lighting though. The camera and I perceive things quite differently and I'm always amazed that there is less light than I first guess.
Looks like the same object, and I can't help but think it's something to do with gardening. Yet, I know you have that macro lens and this could be something quite small. The proportions look wrong for the reddish part to be threads to be screwed into something. I'll just have to wait for the next clue!
"It's not all about taking pictures. It's about appreciating this world we live in for such a brief amount of time."
--Steve McCurry, the photographer who recently shot the last manufactured 36-exposure strip of Kodachrome film
You Could Say the Same Thing About a Good Photograph
"Good writing does not succeed or fail on the strength of its ability to persuade. It succeeds or fails on the strength of its ability to engage you, to make you think, to give you a glimpse into someone else's head."
--Malcolm Gladwell, What the Dog Saw
I Wish I'd Said That
"...keeping a (photo) journal...makes me more aware than usual about my surroundings, and has me keeping an eye out much more carefully about potential photos in the world around me. They're not always great photos, and sometimes they're quite bad from a strict photographic standpoint, but it has me paying attention more, and I'm enjoying that..."

Recognizing Abundance
"If your everyday life seems poor, don't blame it; blame yourself; admit to yourself that you are not enough of a poet to call forth its riches; because for the creator there is no poverty and no indifferent place."
