 Technically not as good as I'd wanted, but I started too late to do any more iterations.

This is a 8" stainless steel ball on the grass in my backyard after sunset. I really was running out of time here with darkness quickly setting in, which prevented me from seeing the dirt on the stainless steel ball.

I had great difficulty getting this focused, also because I had hardly any light to work with. After submission I found out that the image from this ball is situated on a sphere of 4 inches inside the ball itself, which is where I should have focused.

This is one of those shots where nothing is technically "right" but it is visually very appealing. it kinda feels like i'm in a deep hole or cave underwater looking up.

Nice at a distance but noisy and dirty up close.
