My Nuts Are So Beautiful

They are also rather large. I can take out a caliper to get a more precise measurement. In this photo I tried to go after a certain look I could get with relative ease on film. I more or less got it with some tinkering in Pix. The setup was rather quick and easy, arguably rushed: a flood lamp directed at the ceiling. Exposure was 2600k ISO 125 1/8s @f4. Lens was Minolta 58m F1.4 Auto Rokkor PF.My nuts.JPG

Unique photo topic. Saw one that was nothing more than a closeup of colored rope on a boat dock.

Not only was the entendre good, so was the photo.

Your nuts are all shiny and new.  My collection is old and tarnished.

Oh my! Well at least they aren't rusted.

Shiny and new is nice, but it is also just what I had on hand. Tarnished or even rusted may look interesting in a photo. Looking back,  I probably should have used a polarizer.

I like the strong sense of black/white that underpins the image.
