I’ve always been rather attracted to this Papermate propelling pencil because of its transparent barrel and the details of the spiral mechanism for extruding the graphite. Oh, and the colour… So I could hardly resist when the spiral topic came around again for Macro Mondays.

A bit of a rush job though - one take and then a patch-up in the processing. Had I had more time I think I would have used a tripod and focus stacking (or a different lens). Ah well…

This is vaguely what I intended, or at least an inch and half of it anyway. The full pencil is more interesting :)

Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Macro Mondays :)

I'm often struck at the differences in styles, preferences, and processing that photographers/artists display and pursue.

One loves realism, another prefers an abstract look.

Some want pure, out of camera images, others love graphics and a lot of manipulation.

I guess I like it all and dabble with any style and representation that strikes my fancy.

The image above is a perfect example of that.

Love it or hate it, that's fine. Art is about freedom and it is about expression, and whatever makes the artist happy. It's not always about what others think and how it will be received or embraced.

So, enjoy... (if you can) Either way, it's all good :)
