Well the days are shorter and temperatures are dropping so time to put away the summer clothes, just before the leather sandals disappear for the winter they can be of use for this week’s theme with all of their stitch work. Happy Macro Mondays.

This is a macro photo of the stitching on a softball. I love the monochromatic yellowish colour palette, the textures, and how the stitching resembles a fern plant.

"Sometimes I imagined stitching all of our little touches together. How many hundreds of thousands of fingers brushing against each other does it take to make love?"

— Jonathan Safran Foer

Macro Mondays - Stitch

HMM ;))

Here's pretty much what it looks like now. I no longer have to keep it covered... but I will for work. A lot of dust and germs floating around the mail stream. Plus, people at work may not be interested in seeing this.

The only part that hurts is the redness around the neck from the tape... it's not this bad any more. I no longer tape the bottom. Only the sides... who knows, by the end of the week. I may not wear anything over it. Just because I'm sick of it.

To get the depth of field, it is focus stacked with 24 photos.

minimalism and clean stitch

Garment makers like to make stitching invisible, so I struggled to find any garments where the colour of the thread did not match the colour of the garment. But in the end I came across this stitching by which the collar of a cycling jersey was attached - white on black with bits of yellow and red.

From our relocation trip across the US... again :) This time we took i40. waaaay better. This was from a quick stop (15mins!) at the Meteor Crater near Flagstaff Arizona. Still experimenting with some of the stitching. This one could use a bit more work, have a couple others to work with. More versions to follow.

Macro Monday Theme: Run

I've been away for the weekend with extended family and had a busy week prior so didn't have time to be particularly creative. So a very quick & focused shoot again this morning: running stitch on my denim jeans, I do love a bit of denim!

Always appreciate your favourites and comments. HMM to everyone!
