The Macro Room YouTube channel is quickly becoming a PetaPixel favorite. It started with dissolving pills, moved on to burning steel wool, and now the channel is revealing the odd textures and patterns of everyday objects when you look at them up close.

Check out the full video up top for a mind-bending mid week treat, and then head over to the Macro Room YouTube channel to see even more close up videos like this one.
