Tiny Tuesday Reminder

What a dreary day it's been.  Temps never out of the 50's and a steady rain most of the day.  I tried huddling under an umbrella for some hummer shots, but it was frankly just too chilly and damp.  So, instead, I indulged in a nice long chat with mom and dad followed by errands and lunch with Hubs. And then, we snuggled up for a nice afternoon nap - blissful!

I was going to go for the only good shot I'd gotten during a brief outing with the macro lens, which is posted HERE on Flickr - a bright green shield bug.  

But then I decided to poke around in one of the drawers on the antique Singer sewing machine that we believe was my husband's grandfather's machine.  And, much to my delight, I found a bunch of these old silver thimbles!  I took a couple up to my sanctuary work space and popped them into a soft box with a black background and a small mirror.  Then, I hooked up the Nissin flash unit to the D850 and took a couple of shots.  I quite like this one.  Probably could have composed it a little more effectively, but I lacked patience.

So, this is your reminder to tag your TinyTuesday entries this week with #TT172.  There is no theme other than to keep with the spirit of the challenge which is close up work and/or images of tiny things.  Have some fun, get creative, get out of your comfort zone (which I've done here, big time!)
