Oh Lonesome Me

The misery of self-isolation...

 

The song Oh Lonesome Me was written in 1957 by country singer-songwriter Don Gibson. It has been recorded by numerous artists, including Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash and Neil Young.

 

For Macro Mondays theme 'Vibrant Minimalism'.

 

The image was done as a seven shot focus stack. The most tricky and time-consuming part was constructing the 'eye' - I punched out a tiny circle of yellow paper and managed to draw on the black pupil (this took a number of attempts), then I lost several of them in the carpet before I managed to get one to stick on the wood.

 

No wooden puzzle pieces were harmed in the making of this photograph.
