At the end of last year I set out on a small project, which was the exploration of a single object in order to try to create a story for it, to be more specific I took a 60 year old textile machine(in its factory) and photographed it as close as I could using my 1/3rd cropped sensor camera and a 50mm prime 1.4f lens.

The factory itself has been producing a form of cultural identity for more than 50 years and now it is slowly closing down due to low demand because the Jordanian population is becoming more globalised.

I think I like this one best from the series. Seems to have more personality, for some reason I can't quite define.

Thank you :) I hope that the end result will have a more well rounded effect on everyone.

These remind me of photos from my great grandparents old hosiery mill in Mississippi. They made socks and stockings. we still have a couple pairs of the baby socks that they made there.

These are wonderful photos. Keep it up.
