Photo 365: Day 36 – Golden Tassel
Here is a picture of golden tassel on our console lamp shade. I kind of like the shadows in the background as it gives a depth to the capture.

Photo 365: Day 35 – Dried Roses
Dried roses – these were dried by my wife long time ago (may be about 8 years ago). I remember researching for her on drying them back then.
These were real flaky and had to be handled with extreme care for picturing them. I really liked the way the pictures turned out for today’s post.

Photo 365: Day 33 – Flower Curtain
Used 50mm prime to capture the light falling on the flower curtain. Shot this in raw and later converted to B&W in CS4.
Photo 365: Day 31 – Mini Cranberry Scones
Sunday is a baking day for us. Our daughter started going to school last year and we bake most of our snacks/bread at home on Sunday. Followed this easy to follow recipe from Baker’s Banter blog – we made it tad healthier by adding in oat bran, cranberries and flax meal.
Photo 365: Day 30 – Mexican Bean Beetle
The other day when cleaning up my garage I came across this dead Mexican bean beetle. Had this stored in a ziploc bag for a macro capture and had this shot using my Nikkor 60mm macro for today’s post. Earlier I tried capturing this with reverse mount BR-2A/28mm prime but didn’t workout very well.
Photo 365: Day 28 – That’s my dinner…
Spaghetti stir fry…that’s my dinner.
I had a different idea for today’s post, but my wife suggested may be I should try food photography. True, I haven’t taken food photographs for quite some time now. So I was delighted to take the picture of stir fry. Further, we had good amount of sunlight this evening coming through the window and took this picture in natural lighting.
Photo 365: Day 26 – Colorful Thread Spindles
Originally I was wanting to post a macro capture of a bubble. That didn’t workout very well. I had unsuccessfully tried capturing a bubble from a GermX pump using a reverse mounted Br-2a/28mm prime combination. I didn’t like the way it turned out. So I was going through our closet and came across this box with mending supplies. Played around a bit with setup and finally got this colorful capture. Another post using my Nikkor 60mm macro lens.
Photo 365: Day 23 – Split Coconut
We had this coconut sitting in our counter top for more that a week now ready to be opened/slit. I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn’t spoiled when I had this split open this noon – typically we tend to split coconut as soon as we get it from the store 🙂
I bought a couple of cheapo project clamp lights from Homedepot store and used it to lit the coconuts. I used my 50mm prime to capture this in full manual mode.
I thought it came out good.
