Heart Hooks

Subject
A pair of fishing hooks, each less than an inch long, form a heart. Fishing is a #SimplePleasure that I most associate with wonderful times spent with my father and stepfather at various times of my life.

It was shot for several challenges simultaneously:

Macro Mondays "Less Than An Inch"

Flickr Friday's "Simple Pleasures"

Smile On Saturday's "On Pure White"

Weekly Theme Challenge's "Hearts"

Sunday Lights "Only Your Best"

Lens
On the body we have the SMC Pentax-DA L 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 AL WR. It's the kit wide-angle zoom. Reversed onto that lens is the SMC Pentax-A 1:1.7 50mm.

The EXIF data only shows the information for the body-attached lens. Even at 55mm it has mild vignetting when used this way. At 18mm, only a small central circle is visible. The reversed lens is fixed at 50mm and is wide open at f1.7.

The image is not cropped or modified in any way.

Lighting
One Pentax AF540FGZ strobe is mounted on the body as the wireless master, aimed at an improvised white-paper reflector. A second AF540FGZ capped with a generic snap-on diffuser is the wireless slave, laying just outside the frame.
