Not quite the Great Pyramids of Egypt. Think a little smaller, like something you'd find on your keyring. This item above will get me into my apartment, and lock it up when I leave. I looked at several of my keys before shooting, and decided this one was most interesting within the very small crop area available for me to shoot.
I'm sure you can guess what this is below, kind of a cliché photo actually. A ballpoint pen has been shot many times already, so I'm not covering any new ground here. This particular one is a sparkly green ink gel pen, and you can see evidence of that on the ball and nib there.
I took a look at another writing instrument too. Below is the tip of a metallic gold paint pen. Notice that they can't use a ball (which might get jammed with paint) or a felt tip (which would dry out too easily) and instead created a writing nib from a cylinder of plastic housed in the metal tip.
While these may not be the most interesting Morning Macro photos ever, they are still a good add to the collection of mundane things we can be fascinated by, and find art within.
Send me your suggestions for something tiny that you'd like to see big.
