Macro Monday 39, sharp. But clean?

Like many other red-blooded Canadian men, I've been giving the barbecue a workout this summer. The list includes lamb and bison burgers, rack of lamb (I'll put my rack of lamb up against any restaurant in the city), various bison steaks, a lamb shoulder roast cut into steaks, a lamb roast on the rotisserie, lots of chicken done different ways, and several kinds of fish usually done in foil. Most of these have a specialty Linda marinade that makes them ever so much more yummy. We've had a wonderful summer having lunch and dinner out on the patio. It's getting a bit cool for that now. We've been hoping to get one last lunch, but this was a busy weekend.

Steak knives are often used after taking the meat off the barbecue, and the other day I was looking closely at the tiny little grooves in the knives, and wondering if the bristles of the scrubby brush actually get into the grooves. You can decide for yourself. All of these are shot at about 5x magnification, so the width of the photo is about 4 mm in real life.





These are the scrubby brush bristles. Clearly they reach into the grooves. Good thing.

The texture of the different steels makes macro photos fascinating to me. I didn't do anything to add the flecks of colour, just shot these under really, really bright work lights.

Of the Day
Flowers, same flower, fore and aft, so to speak. This dahlia is just exquisite. I'm hoping to get some lovely morning or evening light on it.
