My first attempt at this Macro Mondays thing, is a detail from a Philips living light remote control. HMM everyone!
Subject
The subject is a child's hair bow, constructed of loops of ribbon.
It was shot for simultaneous entry into Macro Monday's "Buttons and Bows" theme and for Weekly Theme Challenge's "Loops" theme.
Lens
SMC Pentax-DA L 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL WR. It's the kit wide-angle zoom. It's on a pair of stacked teleconverters in order to achieve 1:1 macro: a Vivitar 2x and a Sigma 1.4x AF. Both carry the aperture information back to the body.
Because of the stacked teleconverters, the focal-length data is lost. The EXIF entry for focal-length is based on the options set on the camera and does not reflect the adjusted focal-length of the lens. The actual focal length was 154mm.
Lighting
One Pentax AF540FGZ strobe is connected using one of my DIY cable extenders. It is to the left on a simple stand, only a few degrees out of line with the camera. It is aimed up slightly from the horizontal. A cleaned out yogurt cup acts as a diffuser.
See the first comment for an image of the setup.

A different take on the buttons and bows theme for Macro Mondays. The neon rendition was not posted in the group but I had fun creating it.
The beautiful button wearers— with their frills, flowers, bows, rings and things — have all moved on.

A bow in B&W. This bow happened to be on a present sitting under the Christmas Tree. The texture seemed interesting enough to warrant a colorless Christmas shot. HMM!
Macro Monday Theme: Buttons and Bows
Shutter button and bow. This archer with his long bow could be a mascot permanently attached to my Zenit 12 XP camera and Helios 44-2! Taken with a DA35 Macro lens.

J'ai trouvé des boutons sur lesquels figurait ces arrêtes de poissons. Fixés sur les yeux à l'aide de gomme fixe je trouvait que le portrait de mon chat en peluche pouvait convenir à la commande Macro Mondays du jour;)
So embarrassingly in a house of 3 females-including 2 teanagers; I have the item of clothing with the shiniest button. . My velvet wedding day waist coat from 1994. It still fits!
This week's Macro Mondays Group theme of "Buttons and Bows" reminded me of a simpler age, many years ago when buttons were saved for reuse and Granny's, or Mum's Button Box became a favourite children's plaything, often being re-imagined as a pirate's treasure chest, a shop's till, or just an intriguing kaleidoscope of memories, shapes, textures and colours!
So, this is my entry for the theme, as one man's trash is another man's treasure! HMM
