Macro Monday - Buried Treasure.

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.

Enjoy the close ups and welcome to 2012.

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

  11. 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.
