Today’s The Daily Shoot’s assignment is: “Make a photo that features stripes of some sort today.”
What a busy day! The family and I took a little road trip down to Seattle for lunch, some shopping and to visit my parents. Was a really good day…but long! When we got to our fist destination, I felt lick such a noob as not only did I forget my tripod but apparently, I left all my memory cards at home! Looking back, it was a blessing in disguise as I didn’t worry about holding up the clan wanting to take a shot of this or that or them…it was a good day! π
Macro day (again)…this time, I am not going to tell you what it was I shot…can you figure it out?

You would think being a professional baker, I would know right away it’s a pastry blender. π Great macro and as always, your creativity never cease to amaze me.
Wow, when taking this, I thought for sure you would get it! π Thank you for the wonderful comment.
This is a nice shot! I envy your macro lens right now….
Hehehe, lens envy…I have a story. Last baseball season we were leaving Safeco Field (The Seattle Mariners) and this chick walked by. I turned my head and followed her when **WHACK, I get a slap on my arm. Amy looks at me and says…you were checking out the lens not the chick weren’t you?? Yupppp, I sure was (she had a nice canon 400mm L on a monopod)!!
Excellent creative shot David!!! beautifully done, as usual!
Thank you Mike, it’s rather amazing what normal kitchen utensils can look like from a different perspective isn’t it? π
Lovely macro David. It’s a dough blender – It did a macro shot of similar subject for my 365 project – http://my3rdi.org/2010/09/01/photo-365-day-242-tdsmonochrome-macro-challenge/
I remembered after I posted this that you had taken a similar shot and figured you would guess what it is! Love how the same subject can be used yet, look differently depending on the photog! Good post on your take. π
I have no idea what it is. If it’s a pastry blender like they said then not a surprise I have no idea, I don’t even know what one is! π Love the shot though!
Hi Cassie, it is a pastry blender. Basically, it’s used to mix in butter (or the likes) into flour when baking.
Ooh, I really like this – cool and clean and abstract.
Thank you, I had fun picking the angle on this one. π
Yep–a pastry blender. This is so creative, and looks great! Love the contrast of light and dark, and the angles.
Thank you the comment Heather and yup, you guessed it! π
Nice shot David! I was thinking it was an egg or apple slicer, but my wife claims it’s a pastry blender.
Hi Jim, let your wife know she hit it on the button, it is a pastry blender!
I have no idea what this is, but I like the shot.
Thanx Mike, it’s a pastry blender!
