I'm on day 246 of my project 365 (external link). When I haven't gotten my photo-of-the-day and it's too dark/cold/late, I'll pop the macro set up on. I took a shot of what felt like everything around the apartment and this one ended up being my favorite. I posted it on facebook/instagram asking for others to identify what it is...lots of incorrect guesses!

That brings back memories of a pencil twisting one of the cassette wheels to rewind the tape back into the cassette!! :)

This could lead to interesting idea... 365 day Macro-a-day project... :)

Shampoo sounds like an unfortunate name for a hair product.
You're a ghost driving a meat-coated skeleton made from stardust, riding a rock, hurtling through space. Fear Nothing!

That would be a cool one! While I feel like there are interesting macro opportunities everywhere, I still feel like I spend more time shooting/editing macros than most other types of photography. With that in mind, I'm not personally up to it :-P. I love my project 365, but I am also looking forward to the day I'm done!
