For the Macro Monday challenge "Push Pull" (August 17th 2020)

These rather sweet glass and metal knobs are used on all the drawers and cupboards in the bathroom and ensuite - 20 of them in all!

They are just over 3cm across ... I had to shoot this one in place, on a cupboard ... so I am reflected in the metal as I struggled with the camera in a confined space!

I also used a simple 2-layer focus stack to get the glass in focus.

HMM!! ;o)

This red Sekonda analogue battery powered wristwatch had a lovely shiny finger adjustment, pull out a little to change the date, then pull out all the way to alter the hands just by turning the serrated adjustment knob.

Once the time and date have been successfully entered the knob should be pushed back inwards towards the watch. Once this procedure is done the adjustments entered will not alter.

Thank you so much everyone who viewed, favoured or commented on my photography, it's really appreciated! 👍👍

Last week the theme of Macro Mondays has been "PushPull". I decided to split it and create two single images. One for "Push" and another one for "Pull" ! The 1st one called "Push" already has been released. So here is the 2nd one for "Pull". The tiny little helper better doesn`t pull the pin of the grenade - otherwise KABOOM :)

And of course his adjutants are warning him very harsh!

Thank you for visits, comments and favs!

This is my fun contribution to this weeks theme of PushPull; Hans and Steve have had a hard week so they decided to break open a can of Pink Gin... Hans appears to be doing all the work but neither realised that you had to pull the ring...LOL. HMM

So, I decided to share a selection of the output of this panorama session in a somewhat chronological order. I did 15 panos total, 3 duds I did not develop, 3 more or less redundant where I did some bracketing (which turned out to be unnecessary, but there was no way I'm going to mess up or miss any of this lovely opportunity, do you know that kind of thing?), and 3 at the end that were more documentary.

The sun was about to set here, shadows getting longer, color of the remaining light changing slowly but surely.

And it is pretty interesting how much the fog reacts to not being in the sun anymore! Really cool to watch, and all sorts of things can happen. I like the fluffy 'reachable' shadow part in front, the tender color palette overall and ethereal nature of it all, there are just the two hills and the mountain range, the rest of the image is thin air, literally!
