For the Macro Mondays group, on the subject of 'Found in the Kitchen' - this is the blades of a pair of kitchen scissors.
Quite a minimalist shot, and I think it works fairly well...
This theme inspires me a lot, I've done several photos of different objects in my kitchen (you can see some of them in my gallery or in comments).
I choose this photo for Macro Mondays because I really love its graphic look.
It's the detail of a knife on a frying pan.
"Macro Mondays", 2nd October 2017 – "Found in the kitchen"
Sparschäler "Rex", 1947, Alfred Neweczerzal, Davos. >>>
My husband and I picked up these little ceramic egg coddlers many years ago at an antiques shop, and we’ve hardly ever used them. Their main job is to look pretty on the window sill above my kitchen sink.
They are champions at creating gently cooked eggs, though. I took some liberties for the photo, taking a lid off for a peek and bringing the water to a full boil, rather than a gentle simmer.

Section of a "Krusty Korn Kobs" cast aluminum cornbread pan. The pan was patented in 1920 by US company Wagner Ware, who promoted cornbread as: "Another good thing that has come out of the war".
Corn had replaced wheat during World War I, with the United States Food Administration promoting "Meatless Mondays" (not Happy for some!) and "Wheatless Wednesdays", to encourage economical food consumption, not trendy diets.
Who can take a sunrise
Sprinkle it with dew
Cover it with choc'late and a miracle or two
The Candy Man (the Candy Man)
Oh, the Candy Man can
The Candy Man can
'Cause he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good
Macro Monday theme- Member's Choice-Found in the Kitchen
After much pondering on the kitchen theme I settled on the OXO's, but had to buy a couple of extra boxes of oxo's just to make what you see above, as they are all wrapped quite random! Never mind I won't have to buy more for a long time! Reminds me of doing a Rubik Cube!!!

Almost forgot to post something this week. Using the time difference at my advantage.
My normal routine for the shots I take for Macro Mondays involves me sitting at the kitchen with my macro rig, 90% of the times. So I was delighted to see "Found in the kitchen" to be this week's theme.
I found a grateful (pun intended) subject in this dangerously coarse grater, I dimmed all the lights and used my LED ringflash as the only light source. This was a fun theme to shoot, more themes like this please!!
HMM to all!!
Macro Mondays" and "Member's Choice - Found in the Kitchen".
I am a tea drinker. My mother was a tea drinker. It's the Irish in me and according to my dear mother, the solution to everything. The teapot and the kitchen table were the emotional heart of our home.
IF there's only me, I'm more likely to use a Boule à Thé otherwise known as a tea infuser. This one is a rabbit.
My current favourite is Orange Pekoe.
Thank you for your views, faves and comments. I appreciate them all. HMM

I found Tip in the kitchen behind the refrigerator. I don't know how he got there and I don't remember having him before then. He's the handle of a vintage bottle opener. He'll open bottles that aren't vintage, too. He appears to be holding a beer mug and growler for Oktoberfest.
I think he's had too many bottles. He looks tipsy.
This weeks Macro Mondays theme is Member's Choice - Found In The Kitchen.
The photo above is of an object found in a great many kitchens, and is used millions of times every day. It will often leave the kitchen and travel with a family member, and sadly, often never return.
If you don’t know what it is, check back at the close of this weeks Macro Mondays entries and I will name the item for those who do not know. Remember to Think Small.
HMM.
The posted photo is of a ‘zipper’ on a zippered sandwich bag. It was taken at very high magnification, 5x on a full frame camera, and has not been cropped. The blue ‘channel’ in this photo is 1/16th of an inch high.
These bags are made of either low density or high density polyethylene, depending on their intended use. It was nearly impossible to get critical focus on the colored parts of the zipper due to their tendency to slightly fluoresce under normal light. This fluorescence causes an apparent blurring at the materials edge. At this magnification the depth of field was also razor thin. The fluorescence is what makes the colored components of the zipper look so vibrant. This vibrance also allows the two halves to appear green when properly sealed. Blue + yellow = green. If you look closely at the image, you can clearly see the texture of the clear portions of the bag at the focus plane.

I was pleasantly surprised and relieved to learn that the Macro Mondays theme for this week was to feature things "Found In the Kitchen"...one of the few rooms in the house that I still know my way around.
This offered the perfect opportunity to highlight one of my favorite cheeses. Over the years, It's nutty, velvety flavor and texture has helped to augment many a dish.
Thanks everyone for the visits, comments and faves.
Happy Macro Monday!
A fresh picked bowl of carrots showed up in the kitchen tonight, perfect.
HMM!
