Golden Corners

Macro Mondays, theme: Corner

 

Bismuth metal. Bismuth does strange things to light. The yellow glow comes from a yellow LED placed in front of the bismuth, but the blue is a surprise - presumably it is iridescence generated by the lights providing general illumination.

 

A vintage Nikkor 50 mm - f/1.4 lens was reverse-mounted on the camera using a reversal ring. The aperture was set to f/1.4.

Five-image focus stack.
