Today is the 17th day of a 30 day challenge. The objective is to shoot one shot per day on subject matter provided by the local camera club.

Today's subject matter is, "A key".

Macro mondays: junk. Keys that have no lock. No idea where they came from or why they are even in the. drawer.

An old key from my wife's collection, above a modern one.

This is a 3 image HDR photo taken through a 12mm extension tube. The background is simply a book with a silvered cover which has reflected the brightly covered tablecloth beneath the assemblage

HMM all.

This week I've gone for a simple take on 'Made of Metal'. I had an idea in my head all week, but at the last moment it fell through, so this was as a result of a last minute scramble last night to get a submission ready.

I did consider making up three key's to success, but that just seemed a little pretentious to me. So I'll leave it as it is.

Happy Macro Monday!

High key rainy street shot from outside London King's Cross station.

I really boosted the highlight levels in Camera Raw, to produce this high key offering. This had the duel effect of really bringing out the failing rain in front of the woman's black clothing and bleaching out the unwanted distractions of the background. It has produced a bit of noise but is within acceptable levels I think.

A quick high key shot for the Macro Mondays Flickr group. In this case, the tines of an iridescent fork.

This pair of matched keys has been in our junk drawer for years. We have absolutely no idea what they're for.

For Macro Mondays theme 'High Key'. I'm not sure if I've done this right, HMM anyway!

thanks to my flickr friends for their continued support while i was away.. you guys are the best

A large population of feral chickens inhabit Key West, Florida, reminders of the days when cock fighting was a sport on the island, and Ernest Hemingway spent hours in the local bars. Generations of released/escaped "Cubalaya" roosters have "cock-a-doodle-do-ed" their freedom and roamed free.

This handsome fellow is protected by law, but is not admired by all of the current residents of Key West. The chickens do provide local "color" and a link to the romantic past of Key West, but they are also noisy and messy. For now the Rhode Island Red hens/roosters still "rule the roost."

This group of trees with their colour really stood out on the Beaver River... trying for a more high key look.

Some more experimenting with ND filters and trying to process them to the way I would like, that's the hard part.
