The second frame is just to show what cast the odd shadow. As I understand, #shadowhunters points out that shadows are often more interesting than the item casting the shadow.

The mug holds paring knives. The knives use to live in a drawer. But it is easy to poke oneself while reaching into a drawer full of sharp knives. The warn knife handle in the foreground is a Chicago Cutlery paring knife that my parents received as a wedding gift in 1951.

The two spatulas usually live in a drawer. They recently decided to move into the paring knife mug (I am not one to question the minds of kitchen utensils).

Regardless, The shadow really jumped out at me. The reflection off spatula in the center of the shadowed glistened a bit. I did not make the arrangement.
