I took this picture on the afternoon of Christmas day – I was drawn to the range of textures in the scene. It’s rough, smooth, hard, shiny and soft all at the same time.You can find more macro shots at Macro Monday.

ReplyDeleteyou have a good eye, stewart! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great shot. I wonder what was once at the other end!
ReplyDeleteThat is an interesting shot~great variety to the textures.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting find. It is my kind of shot, and I love it. Something mundane and simple, yet so very fascinating. Your macro capture is excellent. genie
ReplyDeleteNice contrasting textures! It is something that would have caught my eye as well.
ReplyDeleteVery creative, Stewart! I love finding buried stuff, especially at the beach.
ReplyDeleteI agree, it does make a good shot. Good spotting ;)

You wonder where it's been and if it was left there by a fisherman, or if it washed ashore from some distant land.

Happy New Year...
Great picture that I would have just walked on by...well no I wouldn't. I'd pick up the clip, stick it in my pack and never given a thought as to have taken the photo you did. Well done.
ReplyDeleteWow a walk on the beach Christmas Day - How cool. - I like the textural contrast too and the wonderful red color against the sand.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
