Matthew Donaldson, Photographer, London

Description

This detailed close-up photograph by London-based photographer Matthew Donaldson captures a pair of vintage metal scissors resting centrally on a weathered wooden surface. The scissor handles are intricately wrapped with coarse natural twine, adding a tactile and artisanal element to the aged tool. A small engraved sun-like maker's mark is visible on the metal pivot area. The lighting is soft and natural, emphasizing the rich textures of the rustic grain in the wood background and the frayed fibers of the twine. The vertical composition draws focus directly down the length of the closed blades.
