September Theme suggestion: Creative tableaux (still life)

Speak now or forever hold your peace. (or your piece if you are so inclined)
I'm thinking indoors, I'm thinking 'tableaux' or still life for a September theme.
Clear the dining table, whack some old bits and pieces on it and push the button...but hopefully with a little creativity.
Are we game?

Any little spot in the corner of a room or by a window will do.
Time to get some of those beautiful lenses out. Maybe some macro tableau. Hey, it rhymes!
And... it might be time to shout yourself a little table. I made one once from recycled timber from an old house. The darned thing ended up so heavy, we had to sell it with house when we moved. Go light weight!
