I found this cut-out of who knows what. It's a piece of perforated metal, about 6" in diameter. So I was bored again. Had to take some images of it. What amazed me was how the different poses made me take a double look: I knew what I was taking an image of, but the old brain gets fooled once in a while, and not everything appears as it should. Please don't ask me: W H Y ?????

So I elevated it with the help of three pencils. Put a tea light on it. Put two tea lights under it. Then I extinguished the top tea light. This is why I call this one:

"The last breath of the tea light"



Then I got the macro lens out. Damn thing does not have a manual focus override, which is a nuisance, if you ask me. Great lens, but you try and focus in low light with it So here is the next one:

"No 5 - Weird Surface"



Was going to make this a survey: What is it? Found a sparkler lying around the house, thought I should try and use it. So this one is:

Could it be Welding?



So then I took images from the side .. experimented with light. I like this one, because it looks like a pile of wedding bands.

Wedding ring, anyone?



And finally, how it all started:

"The Poor Man's Stove"
