Measuring love

This metal micrometer measuring gauge was one of my father's many tools; before his death he gave many of them to my husband. This tool was used for precise measurement and to measure gap widths.

 

After he and my mother survived active war duty in the army, they went to university. There they became concerned about government and politics the more they learned. Glad they can't see our situation now.

 

Inspired by #MacroMondays and #father. As shot, except to remove a bit of cyan along an edge. Approximate width 5cm/ 1.97 inches.

 

NB. I tried for a no-frills or bokeh approach, a more engineering streamlined look. The histogram looks okay...does it look too dark on your monitor?
