Time to clean the lenses

Get-Pushed Challenge #440
My get pushed partner challenged me to do a lay-flat image that tells a story. I'm not always as creative as many and to try to figure out what kind of story I wanted to portray was the most difficult part of this challenge.

@365anne Thank you for your challenge. Perhaps this is something like you had in mind. Feedback welcomed.

[Lin]

Nicely done!

[Susan Wakely]

I like the way that it is laid out so that you have the correct items for this procedure.

[Margo Sayer]

I like this...only a lot! The purple trimmed pouch is a strong and splendid contrast to the white tray and black camera items.

[Jean]

Great job!

[Martina]

It really tells the story....

[Anne]

Fab! So many backstories are possible with this - what happened to make the lens need cleaning? What if the dirt doesn’t come off? Have I got what I need? Endless stories! Great response Kathy

[PhotoCrazy]

Nicely done!

[haskar]

Lovely shot. And it tells a story

[Cazzi]

You've told the story really well here, its a great shot.

[katy]

Nice shot of all the equipment and details of cleaning lenses. May I send mine to you...now that you have everything ready? :- )

[bkb in the city]

It certainly is important to look after those cameras

[Wylie]

I’m sure most of us can identify with this!

[Issi Bannerman]

I like the fact that the setting of your camera is on M! Mine lives permanently on Av! I think we have the same camera. Canon 550D?

[aikiuser (jenn)]

I'd say you met the challenge quite nicely!

[Jennie B.]

Hmmm......I don't have anything like this to clean😒. Looks like I need some items.

[Margaret Brown]

A great capture of a story being told!

Thank you all so much for your comments on this photo. I really do appreciate them and you as well. Didn't even clean my own lenses so I'm not taking on anyone else's. The camera in the photo is a Canon Rebel 2ti, which apparently is the 550D model. I hardly ever use it but keep the battery charged up, just in case.

@365anne Glad that you liked this. I appreciate the thoughtful challenge.

[william wooderson]

Aaaah... an essential duty!

[Kathy]

@will_wooderson and I've got spots that I can't get off! Darn it.

[summerfield]

i've never attempted to do anything like cleaning my lenses. i do have the gears but it's far easier for me to bring it them to the shop, along with my cameras, for maintenance. you are more sophisticated than me with these things. i say challenge well met. aces

[Kathy]

@summerfield When you live away from a big city you have to learn to do some things yourself. I would have to drive an hour or more to get to a camera store. I may end up having to do this at some point. The spots are becoming more noticeable pre- post processing.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Good for you Kathy- you got the shot and you took care of your camera all in one motion!

[Kathy]

@olivetreeann Thank you. I actually didn't clean any lenses. It was all for show.
