Abbey Road

Home

Macro of an obsolete form of mechanical music recording, the vinyl record. This is a section of the transition between Maxwell's Silver Hammer" and "Oh! Darling" on the Beatle's Abbey Road album.
Complete with the nearly impossible-to-remove dust that made this this type of recording nearly unusable outside of a class 10,000 clean room :-)
Shot with 100mm macro, 68mm extension tubes and a reversed OM-series 50mm lens. Lighting was with a pair of Canon 550EX's (This black surface was ridiculously hard to focus.)

Canon EOS 10D ,Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
1/200s f/8.0 at 100.0mm iso800 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto
