Dear Emgy,
Thanks for stopping by, I?m always happy if someone likes my photographs ;)
I must say we share the same interest in abstracting simple things.
Love your old paint pictures, did take a lot myself in the analog age.
But this one stands out for me, it?s really GREAT.
Think you should buy a better camera, of course it?s all about the one behind it, but still.
By the way, you get quite some comments, must be popular ;)))

Wow! Awesome. Beautiful light, tone and detail!
Funny, I thought it was a tree trunk with grass until I read your
explanation. (and that's before reading any comments. It's kind of
fun to guess.) It's very beautiful; it shimmers.

Thanks for comments everyone
You're so awfully kind!
LOVE YOU ALL!!!
Earlier today, there seems to have been some confusion about the POTD.
First they submitted my "Simply Red", then this one here, "Material World".
I guess none of the two was found good enough to be POTD a whole day.
Oh well.....I can't complain. It was strange to see it happen, and fun too!
I didn't even notice the change, until my friend Harland Heald asked what was going on.
All I knew then was that I was receiving congratulation messages for my Simplly Red and , all of the sudden they stopped and I began to get messages congratulating me on my "Material World" as POTD, which really puzzled me.
Again...Thanks everyone for taking the time to react to my photos.

Emgy - I don't understand what's going on. Earlier this morning, your Simply Red was posted as Photo of the Day. Now, this image has been posed as Photo of the Day. Both are excellent, so I shouldn't be confused. This was your first abstract that really "knocked me out." I return to view it often. Congratulations!!! - Harlan

Thanks for you comments to my pictures.

Emgy, you do have some compression isues here. Otherwise, I hardly see how this image could be improved with another (better?) camera.
The camera did not have the eye or instinct to see the opportunity, the camera did not produce the effect or present the image as you did. Your creativity would shine through no matter what tool you use to record the material for your palette.
Still, a new camera is always nice, eh!

thanks for your lovely words on my photo.:) This is my oldest daughter and she just loves dressing up still at age 23! I think where she was balancing is only 4 or 5 inches across...sorry not sure of the metric! Both the girls are Matrix fans.:)

Emgy,
An odd and compelling image. I find that the scratches and movement of the scratches remind me of grass but then find they are trapped on the plane of hte blade.
I am convinced that working with sub-standard camera's really pushes creativity and our ability to see...this is excellent.

Wow, ik denk dat je hiermee al bijna een wedstrijdje 'om ter meeste comments' kan winnen. Maar je foto is het waard, al die aandacht. Hoe je met zo weinig een foto kan maken waar zoveel in zit. Elke kras op het blad van dat mes is het bekijken waard. De compositie vind ik ook heel geslaagd, het mes dat ongeveer 2/3e van de foto inneemt, en dan de lichtvlekken erboven. Heel knap allemaal, proficiat. Ik heb je bij mijn vrienden toegevoegd, want ik wil wel meer van je werk zien.

Thank you all for your incouraging comments my friends.
Working with my old and simple camera is most of the time frustrating but I'm trying to manage and make it a challenge while I am still (and endlessly) waiting for my new one, which I ordered ages ago.
Harlan,
you are partly right, I was thinking when I took this shot, but not in the sense that I knew what the end result would be. I happened to see some scretches on the blade and I thought that with some artificial light, they could be interesting for a photo. I took a few shots in macro mode and I cropped one so that it could make a nice image.
I've always thought that beauty is everywhere around us, even in the little and insignificant things. I don't think I am wrong

Ik heb een hele tijd naar deze foto zitten kijken omdat ik de kleur en textuur zo mooi vond. Ik kon alleen maar niet zien wat je nou precies gefotografeerd had, lol... als ik naar beneden had gescrold had ik direct gelezen dat het een keukenmes was!
Ik vind dit wederom een prachtige bewerking van een foto, je bent hier erg goed in.
Overigens zal ik het raadsel van mijn 'what is this?' foto oplossen: het is het gestolde spul dat in een lavalamp zit. Het was erg leuk om te horen wat men er allemaal in dacht te herkennen, verdronken druif, borstprothese en gatenkaas onder water waren de meest voorkomende antwoorden.
Een tijdje terug schreef je dat je een andere camera op het oog had, heb je al een keuze kunnen maken hiermee?
groetjes, Louise

Very nice. The dawn behind the blade makes the image. Check your compression settings for your jpegs.

una foto aprticolarmente interessante. Bello il gioco di luce sopra la lama, e l'intrecciarsi dei graffi su di essa... Ottima anche la composizione.
