Love the colors and shapes. I'm curious why you chose such a shallow DOF, as I find the out of focus areas distracting, perhaps because the bright yellow draws my eye to those areas. Interestingly, my reaction to this issue varies by how close I am to my monitor. When I move further away than my usual position it does not bother me as much. Going to bump this!

LOL! Great glove-scape in the (I'm guessing) morning light.

Nice find. Good eye. I like this even though IMO it stretches the notion of "macro" .

Yes, apparently there was, and at this point they have been working on it for a year or so, and will continue for a while longer.

Love the sculptural quality to the numbers that you captured, and the contrast between the sharp clear numbers and the blurred and distorted background. Well seen.

Great shot. Love the tones and textures and the contrast of the metal and gravel. With the angle you shot it at my eye just gets pulled into the picture. It shouts "street" too.

Lovely shot. I like how I can really "feel" the textures here. Great processing.

...and it seems like she was born only yesterday, during the WPL contest I recall. Lovely series of photos, including some of your earlier ones I ran back through as well.
