Chiming Macro Monday

lc1269


For our first anniversary we went to the cities and we got a moose/bear/tree wind chime, so it only seemed fitting when we went to Door County for our third anniversary (we skipped the second one) that we get another wind chime.

I had no idea it was so dusty! Darn these macros!  This is the chime that is Tristan's favorite, it hangs in the kitchen and he loves to make it make noise.

Macro Monday is easy to play, snap a macro (or any close-up) photo, post it on your blog and come back here and sign Mr Linky. Don't forget to visit each other. :)

    Macro Lenses should come with cleaning ladies .... I am always surprised by the dust! Those are beautiful chimes.

    I love these closeup pictures of the chimes. The colors are vivid. There is something magical about wind chimes. I think I should buy one to share with my kids. I would like to get one with some "personality" to add a little something to my always evolving home decor :)

    I'm with Kath. Anything that shows dust that plainly should come with a way of getting rid of it.

    Somebody call the Swiffer people, I've got a great opportunity for them!

    Beautiful macros, dust and all. That is an issue, isn't it? I find dust and cobwebs on things I had no idea were dusty.

    You've given me more ideas with your chime photos. Thanks, Lisa!

    That looks very nice ! You are right Macro photos are dangerous, all the dust you see suddenly and in my case all the cat hairs ! :-)

    Macros do seem to have a way with exposing dust. Regardless, this is a beautiful chime.

    I love to hear chimes.
    Just made me think I'd better go look to see if the wind blew mine down... I haven't heard them the last few days. Duh.

    I'm wishing I'd gotten my camera out to play macro --

    I picture you with a whole yard full of wind chimes like the woman in Twister.

    I can see dust even on the back of the lady bird macro I took two weeks back, I guess its a bitter truth that accompanies macros. A small spider from me this week.

    Er...I don't see the dust. Maybe that's my "trained" eye working...I've trained my eye NOT to see dust in my house :-)

    How beautiful! Heehee, the macro lens does show every little imperfection, doesn't it? I took a macro pic of one of my rings one day, and I couldn't believe how many dents and scratches it had. Happy belated anniversary to you!

    I didn't see the dust until you mentioned it. The color distracts my attention.
