Captain Hook

Canon EOS 6D - f/2.8 - 1/60sec - 100mm - ISO 12800

 

- for challenge Flickr group Macro Mondays,

theme Pareidolia (= seeing faces in objects).

 

- The hook is 4 cm high.

 

- I did find this hook in a rather dark place, it was not screwed to the wall but glued.

As the picture was taken with a rather high ISO by low available light, and being no flash user, the result was a bit grainy and flat.

To get a more acceptable result, I used the function 'Chrome' in PaintShopPro.

 

- Pareidolia is a psychological phenomenon that makes a simple sound or image into something far more noteworthy.

The human brain is masterful in organizing visual data into meaningful and significant shapes. It is a way to make sense of random or ambiguous patterns where none really exists.

Some common examples are seeing animals in clouds, monsters in cracks on the wall, or gnarly faces on tree trunks.
