Eye Spy

A common use of macro photography is to take close-up pictures of everyday things and then see if people can guess the subject of the picture.  I have been planning to do that for one of my weekly postings and given that I didn't have much else to share this week, now would be the time.

In addition to that, I was interested in trying a unique selfie where all you see is an eye.  Using the R1 flash system featured in my flower power posting, I looked into the lens and snapped the picture, trying all the time not to blink.  The results weren't too bad so I thought the picture would make a good lead in to the blog and it helped me title the posting.  

All pictures in this week's post were taken with the 105mm macro lens on my Nikon D750 camera with the R1 flashes attached to the front of the lens as described in other posts.  There is not much else to say about this week's pictures so now its up to you to guess what each one is.

If you think you know what each picture is you can check the answer page to see if you got it right.  I'll give you a hint; a lot of them are spices from the kitchen.
