I like the way you filled the frame in this one. Since there is no white bg I feel this one meets your theme better.

Nice - but I still like the other better. Proabably just a matter of differing tastes.

Beatiful intertwining of color. DOF you us is most effective.

From the thumbnail I thought this might be bamboo or some other kind of wood. Now I see that it might be books? Clever use of the rule of thirds.

It's quite simple, is grain sprayed with water. I take my 100mm macro lens and start 'hunting': while I'm moving back and forth I rotate the focus ring till something worth it gets in my viewfinder. Using a tripod is must!
For this one here I used iso 640, f5.6, 1/6.

While for the other one below I had iso 640, f3.5, 1/20
