Macro Mondays: String
"String is a wonderful thing, rope is thicker, but string is quicker. The meaning of this is obscure, that's why the higher the fewer." Words by Spike Milligan.
Scene is approximately 0.75 inch.
This is green sisal for garden use and is about 1.5mm in diameter. I wound some shiny brass picture wire around it and shot it with 48mm worth of extension tubes on the macro lens, so these are very fine fibres, seen rather close up. The background was some shiny gold styled wrapping, which produced more colours than I expected when lit with a head torch from various angles.
