Macro Mondays: Kitchen

This spoon belonged to my mother, and was used as a measure for a Tablespoon. This is probably not accurate compared to today's metric measures, but I still use it without any failures.

Balancing two spoons on perforated metal is not easy! Then placing a led light underneath without disturbing. The colours are created by the light reflection off support boxes placed on wood I positioned under the metal.

A set of measuring spoons

For Smile on Saturday’s theme “Kitchtoolia”

Have a nice week

For Macro Monday's theme "Redux 2018". My favourite theme of this year : measurement.

I wish you a very Happy Macro Monday and a Wonderful New Year

.....I wish you all a colorful weekend :)

… with a lot of tarnishing! For Macro Mondays>>5 letters. (With Lensbaby Burnside lens.)

For 'MacroMondays' theme of 'kitchen'.

My morning cereal bowl and a tea-spoon.

This started off as a simple idea! - KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid)

Like a lot of simple ideas, it didn't turn out quite as simple in practice! No real issues with lighting - just a single desk lamp -

Issues though with focus!

I would have liked the focus on the rim of the bowl to 'be inline' with the focus on the tip of the spoon - and I've just missed out! The bowl needs to be a bit further away from the camera than it is - how much? Probably 2-3 mm. And then the perspective changes !!!

I lined everything up by eye and I always find it difficult to reconcile what I see and what the camera sees - and it shows again here. It doesn't help with the camera tripod being right against the table-top either. I can never get my eye in the same place as my camera lens.

There wasn't any 'real' colour in the objects and very little possibility of getting any into the picture in the right place - wherever that might be! So I didn't try.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to view, comment, and fave my photo. It’s really appreciated. 😊

For the Macro Mondays challenge "Measurement" (September 24th 2018)

Not exactly imaginative - I ran out of time! So just a small nested set of plastic measuring spoons. The smallest is 1/8th of a teaspoon and the largest measures a little over 1" across.

Happy Measuring Macro Monday!

Perfect pastime on a rainy day.

The most isolated of the California Missions is surrounded by Fort Hunter Liggett Military Reservation and is undergoing an extensive earthquake retro-fit that must be completed by 2015 or the state of California will close the Mission.

This is the second (and the last...) shot about spoon river ; I know I can be boring, but, believe me, I like it so much...

Questo è il secondo (e ultimo, giuro...) scatto relativo a spoon river; so di essere forse noioso, ma, credetemi, mi piace così tanto...

Fun with spoons. A Sliders Sunday submission, HSS to all!

"Next time I see you. I promise." I've known Spoon for a little over a year now, and I've asked him intermittently if I could take his picture. That's what he always told me.

I left him no choice this time. We were talking as a group (me, him, and Tommy), and with a little help from Tommy, he let me take his picture.

I think, more than anything, it says something about the trust we have built up between the us. They know that these pictures are personal to me, not exploitative. There isn't much more "in it" for me other than my love of my work, the fact that this work has the added benefit of raising donations that in turn help them. And, just as important as anything, any one of them can "disappear" at the drop of a hat, so the record of our friendship is something that will always be there.
