I’ve signed up for a Macro Picture Postcard swap over on Swap-Bot and I’d like some help picking out the photos to turn into postcards.Just drop a note in the comments.
I will have two partners and I only have to send one postcard to each, but I will probably send two just to be nice. It’s a themed swap – the idea is to find or take macro (close-up) photos of things that are important to you. I chose to take photos rather than try to find images, so these are all mine. Unless they all suck, then it’s someone else’s fault.
The candidates;
#1 –
It’s the inside of my stove-top espresso maker. Of course I would take photos of coffee.
#2 –
My well-loved pincushion that I have had forever. It’s a tomato.
#3 –
My current work in progress, a granny square bag.
#4 –
My cat Fearless. She’s incredibly easy to photograph when she’s asleep – she barely twitches even if you use the flash.
#5 –
Another shot of my pincushion from a slightly different angle.
#6 –
Another shot of my coffeemaker, while brewing. Every time I tried to take the photo I would move too close and the lens would fog up. That stuff is hot!
#7 –
The center of a granny square. I’m not completely happy with this shot.
#8 –
A doodle I drew.
My favorites are the first pincushion picture, Fearless, and the scribble.
My preferences are: 2, 4, 5, and 8.
I like them all, but if I had to pick two – #6, & #8.
Kitteh!!
#2 and #3 are my favorites.
