I love this, Eelco! Such a simple composition, slice-of-life kind of shot. Perfect edit. Wonderful! :)

Location
I took this photo in the Outdoor museum of Enkhuizen, Holland. It's a museum where daily life in the villages around the Zuiderzee round about 1900 has been rebuild.Time
This photo was taken about 4 PM.Lighting
The kitchen door of the old fisherman house was open. Natural light came from the left, creating nice side lighting.Equipment
I have a Lumix DMC-TZ100, all my photos are taken with this little miracle of a camera...The best thing about this camera is that it has a good Leica lens and it is very easy to carry with you because it practically fits in your back pocket. I didn't use any other equipment.Inspiration
When I saw these old kitchen utensils hanging from the painted kitchen wall I was brought back to my grandmothers house. I could smell her soup and saw her laughing at me. I tried to capture that feeling by creating a simple still life photo.Editing
I did minimal post-processing in Lightroom like cropping and enhancing small details.In my camera bag
I don't have a bag of equipment at all, only my Lumix DMC-TZ100, a wonderful intelligent automatic pocketcamera wich practically fits in my backpocket. It shows that you do not have to use expensive and big cameras to achieve nice results...Feedback
If you look at a subject to photograph, you have to try to realise what you want to achieve, Try to find the good light, the right point of view and the best composition... In this case I wanted to Isolate these decorative kitchen utensils within a simple composition. When I cropped it I carefully straightened the wall to focus all attention on the composition. Once I get home and open my laptop, the magic of today's world begins... I allways crop it later into the size and composition I like best. Crop the photo in different ways, so you can choose the best one the next day when you can have a fresh look at them!
