#Wrinkled

 

My subject for "Wrinkled" is crinkled, creased, and folded: Bouillon crinkle wire used in jewellery making, (Christmas) decorating, DIY projects, and floristry. I bought it for only one use: photography. I've also already photographed it before for another MM theme, "Wire", back in October 2019 (please see the first comment).

 

Since I had photographed the bouillon wire against a black background last time, I wanted something lighter and more colourful for my photo for "Wrinkled". Once again, I used the light blue glitter foam sheet (dull side up) as background, and for extra colour, I placed a green glass bottle in front of one of my go-to LED lamps (from the right), and equipped the left LED lamp with the semi-translucent yellow bottle cap for the Rumpelstiltskin "turn silver into gold" trick. The other light source was the natural light LED photo lamp from above and photographed the wire with the Laowa Ultra macro lens to get as close as possible, both for extra magnification and a very shallow depth of field.

 

HMM, Everyone, and have a nice week ahead!
