BCSplash Showcase - Threads.

It's the weekend and time for our latest #BCSplash showcase.

This beautifully lit image by dbifulco immediately caught our eye. The colours of the threads and the shallow depth of field create a magical scene.

Where was this photo created and what's the story behind it?

"It was so cold and so windy that even the two minutes I spent outside this morning topping off the feeders was enough to convince me to stay inside.  Which, of course, presented a problem...what to blip?

Then my eyes drifted to the old Singer sewing machine that has a place of honor in our living room. It belonged to my MIL's father so it's around 90 or so years old. The sewing table is old and lovingly worn and the old wooden spools of thread on the posts lend a needed splash of color.
I've photographed these spools before but I wanted to try something a little different this time so I added an external light on the left side which I think gives it a little drama. I did very little to this image as it came out of the camera  looking pretty much like I wanted."

dbifulco has been a member of the community for almost a decade and has created a stunning collection of images in that time. She is a skilled photographer and her wild bird photography is fantastic. If you love wildlife why not go over, say "hello" and follow her journal?

Would you like to see your photograph on our social media headers?

We're always on the lookout for eye-catching images to be included on our Facebook and Twitter headers as well as here on the community blog. 

Pick out a photo that would make an appealing first impression to visitors and add the tag #BCsplash.  

The images ideally should work in a banner format but we can crop them or add a border if necessary. If you're not sure but you love your image, tag it anyway.

We'd love to see you taking part and really enjoy looking through your images.

Thank you for helping us showcase Blipfoto alongside your photos.
