Still more Singers

[pixmedic]

Still wading through the wifes vintage sewing machines.
This is a Singer model 500a, also called a "Rocketeer". Circa 1961.
single light camera right. Tried to get a little dramatic with the lighting.
in hindsight, using black thread with a black background and heavy shadows might not have been the best color choice.

Love the picture, and love that machine. I don't even sew, but this is a beautiful machine!

I do agree that a different color thread would have improved the shot though.

Like a black bear on a moonless night . Nice shots!

Or no thread at all.

Still is right!! How awesome though. Guess she will need a photo book just for her machine pictures! Great job as usual.
