Kinda says it all. I've had this laying around for maybe thirty-five years and it had just enough dirt and grime and patina built up to be interesting. Plus I liked the colors and this color palette. GFX100s and the Canon 135 t/s-e, and yes, of course it's focus stacked but not that many in this case.

That is the real stuff! Yes it has just the right patina, dirt and dust accumulation. Seems the yellow, black and white coloring is very eye-catching and these guys weren't the only one to carry these colors. And you are not even missing the cap

Nice warmth in the wood and BG, great shot of just how I would expect to find it off on a shelf in the shop somewhere.

Pretty sure I have a tin of this stuff in my garage cabinet, although I'm not sure is it's got anything left in it

It's one of those things that I just never get rid of.

Nice shot Peter. Great color and really like the depth of field you went with on this.

I posted this on FB and that was a common reaction - that everybody, or everybody's father had a can in the garage. Regarding depth of field, I wanted everything in focus from the bottom of the frame to the back of the can and maybe a few millimeters further and then let it drop off from there. This was still focus stacked with 24 slices, and I think it was that many because the wood surface is coming straight at you, so the increments between frames had to be very small to get overlap in the frames, and I had to stop to f/11 to give a bit more overlap and wiggle room. I checked every frame as it came into the laptop and sometimes re-shot the frame if it looked like I moved the focus too far.
