The scrutiny of the lens.
This week's Focus on Life prompt from Sally Russick of Studio Sublime is Macro Photo, something we should be checking out this month, which has the theme "Checking Out." So, I decided to check out how one of my hand painted dragon pendants held up to a close-up.
Here is the necklace, made this summer with one of four dragons I found on sale at the craft store, and painted with Vintaj Patinas and Ranger Alcohol Inks.

Let's see what others have done.
I love the colors in this gorgeous necklace! I think your dragon pendant held up very nicely in this macro shot!
ReplyDeleteI know it's lovely to see flower shots, but I just LOVE that you showed us something different! I keep thinking I should get a dragon pendant for my 50th - as I was born in the year of the dragon, apparently! Stunning necklace!!
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who is crazy about dragons! Your necklace is really sweet.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was some sort of weird cactus when I looked at the thumbnail.. you painted him my favorite colours and lucky claire... I was born in the year of the monkey... who wants a monkey round their neck!
ReplyDeleteExcellent close-up!!! That dragon looks awesome, and might I add, you did a beautiful job painting it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful dragon Beti. I have purchased patinas and alcohol inks but I haven't tried them yet. Your photo makes me want to try them.
ReplyDeleteSuper necklace Beti! The dragon's colors and textures you captured are awesome!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea for a macro shot, love the texture of the dragon.
ReplyDeleteYour necklace is beautiful and I love that amazing dragon pendant! The colors are fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great dragon! And a beautiful necklace!
ReplyDeleteHe's very cool
ReplyDeleteOoh, I love that necklace - the colours are beautiful and the dragon is just stunning.
ReplyDeleteNow that is too cool. I would have thought it was antique and metal. Awesome job!
