These are some bags my partner uses to keep her crochet supplies in, glinting in the sunlight, shot with a macro lens.

More Light and Shadow
Yet more sunlight and shadow play, this time taken very closeup with the interesting Laowa 9mm lens.
Beach Still Life
Another gloomy day with lots to see.
3 O’clock
We went to see the Zurbaràn exhibit at the National Gallery, which featured quite a few crucifixions in deep chiaroscuro. I was curious to see this detail, the shadow cast by the nails in Christ’s feet tell us the time was 3 o’clock, the biblically recorded time of the event.
Shielding
Nature and Art
Another weekend another Artists Open Houses neighborhood to explore, this time in Fiveways.
Inkpots
To reach Eunju Lee, a South Korean female luthier (last post), we walked through Inkspot Press and saw the screen, relief, letterpress and etching presses, and other paraphernalia.
Light and Shadow
Another morning I woke up, noticed the light through the blinds falling on the door, glass table top and iPad and ran for my camera with macro lens attached.
Still Life
Refusing Big Brother
Rock
Feet
Afloat
A view through Afloat, commonly known as the Doughnut, in Brighton.
Chairs
Some chairs in the window of a fast-food restaurant, as seen through the lightly telescopic 60mm macro lens (90mm equivalent) with a reflection of the lens in the upright at the centre.
You Cannot Erase Us
Eyes
I was inspired by some pictures Laura El Tantawy showed us from In the Shadow of the Pyramids at her recent presentation at POST, to start shooting very close up. I got out my 60mm f/2.4 macro lens and started using it as a walking around lens in the street to see what I might come up with. This is an atypical way to use such a lens so I’m really just experimenting to see what I can learn about shooting this way.
Corrosion
Fleurs du Mal?
Autumn Leaves
Last of the 2006 reach-backs.
Chairs
Some more pattern abstraction from 2006.
