Jay, you make the mundane look interesting.
Each image is a beautiful play on depth of field and creative perspectives.
I take it #3 is a fridge or kitchen cabinet door handle.

Thanks, Ash.

Yes, #1 & #3 are the same thing. My fridge. (One long winter I think I shot nothing but salt shakers. Can you tell I'm shut-in here?

)

Well it hasn't stifled your photography!
Seems nothing can!

Thx Ash, appreciate it.

I LOVE black and white contrasty graininess. And #3? Way cool. Nice work. I find it rather fun to make art out of dull mundane things.

Wonderful shots, I especially like the computer keyboard. The 31ltd is a perfect tool for this kind of shooting - a bit wider than 'normal', very fast, very nice bokeh and center sharpness. Of course, it's a perfect tool for just about anything, isn't it?

(Wish I still had mine.) Thx Ash.

Indeed it is Jay, all the ltds are fine little pieces of kit. I rarely shoot wide open but your shots here inspire to do so and see what these lenses can do.
