Texture

Those who know me already will be aware of my great interest in photography, if you know me and you didn't then you've done well to avoid being bored by hearing me go on. Anyway I've started a new project this evening looking at textures close up, it always fascinates me to see small detail of an object. It will also mean that my macro lens starts to feel wanted again, I think it might of been sulking in the bottom of my camera bag.

The above image is of an item connected to another love of mine football, it's a scarf . I really liked the contrast in the colour and the difference in the pattern of how the acrylic has been knitted. I took the shot with the scarf hanging down and with the lens wide open hence why only part of the image appears to be in focus. The effect of this gives a good sense of close up detail and what you see from a distance. Feel free to tell me what you think.
