I seem to be going through a blue period although I'm no Picasso. :)
Small part of a fence against a rock wall with stairs leading to the entrance of Park Guëll in Barcelona in the golden hour of the evening sun.
Once I got close to the base of one of the towers of the Ambassador Bridge, I was amazed to see the abundance of bolts used to hold it all together.
The Macro Monday theme for 2/26/18 is "Less than an inch." Check out the image of the rivet in the first comment to get an idea of the actual size.
About 40 years ago, the Golden gate Bridge was being earthquake retrofitted, in hopes of keeping it standing when the next "Big One" hits, and thousands of these rivets were knocked out in the process. Most landed in San Francisco Bay, but not all. I used to fish for striped bass off the rocks at Lime Point, almost directly under the north end of the bridge (since 9/11, we're not allowed down there any more for security reasons), and I collected quite a few of these rivets. Other folks found ways of selling them to tourists, but I hung on to the 20 or so that I collected.
The 5/14 topic for #MacroMondays is #LowKey. I set this rivet from the Golden Gate Bridge against a black background and used a single flash sharply off to the side to capture this low key image.

This is a cropped (16x9) JPEG straight out of the camera. and all settings are normal/standard. Focus set on rivets and bridge with camera placed on camera bag, using my hat to get the camera level. 2 second self-timer used.
I was about 13 when my dad let me use his M2 and I was hooked on Leica. I got the chance to buy this SL and couldn't say no. It is a beautiful body and feels great in my hands. I am amazed how quickly I picked everything up.
Really impressed with the results from the Lumix lens. Next up, see if I can get some Leica lenses.

A tidy old night out with Chris T and Rob B last night in an old tank housing. We must have walked past a hundred times but never thought to pop our heads round the door. We watched Rob test his drones crash landing capabilities first, next Chris bagged a beauty and then it was my go.
Lens and tripod swapping was the order of the evening. 1st tripod by the entrance and lit the lining of Riley's old coat using my Nikon 20mm, cap on, swap tripods and took the Nikon off in favour of Chris T's 12mm fisheye. 12mm was favourable due to the diminutive nature of the metal tank. Lens cap off, single pop of Godox followed by 10 seconds of laser. Chris then capped and uncapped the lens as I worked down each side using a lightpaintingbrushes orange filter and universal connector where the walls, floor and ceiling met.
Great night out as always chaps and back in time for a couple of beers and a chill.
