Comment by messerschmitt:
everybody thank u for ur mostly flattering inspiring comments
i agree the picture deserves it..hehe

as there were a mass of remarks about the dof i just want to share this thought about it
i really considered the head being out of focus but if i put it in focus the lettering on the stapler saying in big text RAPID, made in Sweden, serialnumber, prob would have attract alot of attention
i dont think it very typical for a fish to have a brandname and stuff tatoed on his head
so if i had put the focus there it would have been a better photo of a stapler and a worse attempt to create the illusion of a shark or whatever fish
ofcourse this is just my humble personal contemplation about the subject

The Transulcent stapler is perfect for this challenge... You can really see the mechanics!

Mmmmmm - Doner Kebab... my last one was in Geneva - in a place that looked like this... don't have em here in my part of the US. : (

OH! The picture! I LOVE the fireworks in the champagne glass, the reflections in the cobblestones.

Very neat idea...but focus really hurts this one. Assume you used smallest aperture and focused toward the end rather than the middle. Wish I had thought of this one though!

I like the face, but I just wish the face part of the stapler were in focus, instead of just the handle area.

Nice shot and nice use of complimentary colors. The blue firetruck light and the yellow of the firework/champaigne are really pleasing.
