Macro and Whitesheet - 07/29/2012

I saw Jalna's post on a single cherry and thought how I can make a cool picture by using a white paper as background so i decided to try it out w/ my 100mm macro lens. I had bought these white Floamy sheets so I put one on the table and stood the other one supporting it w/ my big lens to make an L shape. I figure that would help to bounce the light that was coming in from my lanai. I didn't have any interesting fruit so I used whatever I found around the house.  Here's my study of Fish oil pill.
Then I wanted try some shiny item, but I didn't have diamond, crystal or bling jewlery, so I found these key chains I made a while ago w/ plastic beads.
Also this angel cellphone decoration.  It came out pretty cool w/ just available light.
Then I saw these pretzels on my table.. and tried that too..It's not easy to make it look 'interesting'.
I tried taking shots of my orchid plant, but somehow,  I couldn't make it focus..I had a lot of fun and I'd have more fun if only I had more interesting things to shoot.
