Metal on metal by Elizabeth McPhee
Inspired by LouJay’s allen keys, I thought I’d see what I could do with these tent pegs that caught my eye in a Variety shop. Hard to get sharp!!
I sharpened them with unsharp mask in Photoshop Elements.
Tried a tripod but that limits my composing too much. Can’t twist and turn!

You do sure aazing and structured work.
Thank you Bruce. Maybe the structured element reflects the way my mind works!!

Great composition, Elizabeth – and lighting. ‘Sharp’ isn’t everything, you know :-)
Thank you Jan. Re sharpness, I had commented to someone about her level of sharpness and then saw I had the same problem! I know it isn’t everything but I like it for macros like this.

Oh this is lovely Elizabeth, love the light you have captured on them and how you have placed them on another metal that compliments the pegs.
would you please think about adding them to the TOOLS GROUP Lou and I host thank you : )
Thank you Karen. I thought the sink-top worked well with the pegs. You’ll see I joined up the Tools group.
