Macro Monday: Burned out.

Monday, August 18th, 2008 | Anna, Macro Monday, photo | No Comments

This is a shot I took last week but wanted to use it for my Macro Monday shot today. This is the guts of a light bulb from the master bathroom that fell and shattered when Ben was changing them out. I loved how it looked so I snapped some shots of it before throwing it away.

It kinda reminds me of the clean lines of an Oscar de la Renta watch or piece of jewelry. It’s always cool when you see something so simple but can immediately see it as a piece of artwork also. I’m loving Macro Monday for that reason, it’s causing me to look at common household items in a whole new light.

Macro Monday: Cupcake Lipgloss

I love Macro Monday! I never should have let all those Monday’s slip by with no shots. SHAME ON ME.

I got these little lipglosses at a Hallmark store when I was there picking up a Mother’s Day present for my mom. I had completely forgotten I had them till I started to clean off my desk today and there they were!

I was excited all over again. They are so cute and the sunday glosses have little chains on them perfect to attach to your keys. The cupcakes will look really cute on my desk at work and home.

Macro Monday: Peanut

Reese started a cool meme called Macro Monday. I love love love macro photography and will take any chance I can get to put that 100mm lens onto my camera. I figured since I took this shot this weekend of Peanut I’d use him for my first submission.

This little guy is a constant ball of loving energy. He is so sweet and loves to play and cuddle and sleep under your covers. Amber and Lupe kept threatening to send him home with me and seriously, if Ben would not have COMPLETELY FREAKED OUT, I’d have totally stolen him and brought him with me. Although Amber and Lupe act tough, I know they’d be lost without him around because you can’t spend more than 2 minutes with this dog without completely falling him love with him.
