Metal Pattern
Uploaded: June 22, 2011
I got a new "foil" cutter head for my electric razor; I loved the pristine look of the gleaming perforated metal, and all-over pattern of teensy, tiny holes.
Out came the macro lens, and I positioned the foil over a red tablecloth for some color to offset the shiny, polished metal.
