String theory

An ordinary bobbin of cotton twine I got it from my wife's uncles house when we were cleaning it out to sell it. This has to be pretty old, probably was made in the good old US of A, possibly as close as Pawtucket or Fall River. Anyway I digress....I was using it yesterday to tie up tomato plants and noticed the patterns and textures. Today being a shitty weather day I took these photos. Sometimes,(often I believe) the simplest objects, the most utilitarian of things are great photographic subjects. Do you agree? I also took pics of coal, a paint can, pill bottles but those will come later.
Enjoy and comment.
Thanks
