Refreshment
A pit stop in a local pub in west London. A spot of lunch and a cool drink (of the soft variety) for me.
Ice and a slice? Don’t mind if I do. A miniature world of effervescence, lemon, a cheeky straw and glass is revealed by the lens. It doesn’t need to be a hot summer’s day to enjoy this little pleasure.

Nice images, Mike. The extra drop of water on the left side of the b/w image really adds to it! :)

Thanks Richard. Yes, I’m glad that droplet showed up too. It helped shape the composition of the final edit.

Another fun shot. Perhaps I should spend more time in pubs. :-)

Hi Lee and glad you like them. Yes, it’s the new best thing but I suspect more than just a novelty, which is good.

I just realised that I show peculiar behaviour when I see one of your posts in the reader: my eyebrows go up, I smile and say aloud: hey, Mike’s new macro lens. If that isn’t something that qualifies me as a weirdo, I don’t know what is…
I really like your macro shots, and every time I see them, I remind myself that I have a macro lens, too. But somehow these days I always go for another one.

Hi Kiki, I’m very flattered to hear that :-) Hopefully you’ll feel the need to dust off your macro lens too. You might be glad to hear there’s something non-macro lined up for this weekend – I don’t want to make people feel macroed out!

Thanks very much, Linda! Well I had my camera and am pretty macro-obsessed at the moment… saw an opportunity with my glass of Sprite!

Very good use of a refreshment break I would say. You have made some remarkable images in what must have been a tricky lighting environment.

Thank you very much! We were next to a window and the light was pretty decent, though macro does hoover it up quite alarmingly.
