NIKON D600 + 90.0 mm f/2.8 @ 90 mm, 1/125 sec at f/45, ISO 200

 

In the grounds of Sydney’s Royal Botanical Gardens – I was directed by some friends to check out this absolutely enormous spider (a Golden Orb) in a web hanging out in the open area (perhaps it was trying to catch bats or a small bird :))

 

I killed ambient by shooting a fastish shutter (1/125th) with a tightly closed aperture to also gain some depth of field this close (f/45) and then lit the spider from the side to highlight it’s shape and the fine threads using an off camera flash with a kiss of light from the front using my LED macro ring light.

A vintage potholder my mom gave me.

I sew at 2 different areas and was tired of chasing my pincushion around, so I made one to fit tightly into a sewing drawer that I keep sitting on top of the cabinet. Works GREAT! The little thing on top has sand in it, for my needles.

New threads...Jacket, 2 shirts, 2 ties and 2 tie clips. 2 for one deals are great...still probably not a good idea to go clothes shopping after watching a James Bond movie;-)

Threading the needle of the Cobbler

I had my eyebrows threaded today. I'm trying to decide what's better, waxing or threading. I have such sensitive skin that waxing is not the way for me to go but threading hurt more than I thought it would. With threading the results are supposed to last longer and the hair regrowth is supposed to be finer.

In this picture, I use a knitting needle size US1 to make the loops at the beginning.

I started with scrap thread that was about 30 to 32 inches in length.

Making rings might be a good use for any the scrap you might have!
