ice crystals on a window at -10F (-23C)

I'm on a visit to my folks in Ohio, and while digging through my photo archives for some pictures for them, I came across a bunch of abstract art photos I took on a different trip here five years ago, so this post is a sampling of those.

The somewhat fuzzy ice crystals above were from the same frigid day that produced Pretty Frost Pattern on a Window and its followup.

Drill

This drill was fruitful fodder for my favorite macro lens, the Voigtländer 125mm/f2.5.

The end of the drill bit appeared here, but the chuck is my favorite, visually.

ピントがあって、解像度が高い写真は 絵になりますね。明るいレンズ、オートフォーカス、マニュアルフォーカスでの操作のしやすさなど デジカメの進歩は 望む画像を手軽に撮れるようにしてくれました。撮りたいものが 増えて良いですね。遊べます。
