My mind went immediately to the Edgar Allan Poe story "A Decent into the Maelstrom". The light draws you in the pic.

A nickel-plated roundwound electric bass string, and the rough recreation of its shooting setup sans camera. The lens is the reversed spigot-mount Canon C-8 38mm f1.8 for 8mm cinema camera.

Akira, that cannot be an electric bass string

Cool rig!

Jakov, believe or not, it is! I was just fascinated by the way it looks from such a proximity.

The posted image is an approx. 1/10 of the original FX frame, by the way.

The rig is very, very versatile.

Subtle in that there are so many.

Balconies where sun never shines...

The surface of a flatwound electric bass string. Zuiko MC Macro 38/3.5 with a couple of appropriate adapters, 2 x PN-11, a set of makeshift LED lighting and D750. I used an IR remote controller in the mirror-up mode, but the shutter shock was difficult to handle at this magnification (roughly x4 on the sensor). Tons of iridescence can be seen here.
