Difficult I know, but do you think the leading edge could do with a touch moe sharpness? Good shot anyway.

I really like this one. It's different and interesting to look at (i.e. it's more than just CLOSE-UP). I also like the mauve background. Good job :)

Nice dof, great color choice for background. Like the loose threads

Wow what a close up. I lioked the white on red backround. but whould ahve gone higher if a little more of the stray threads were in focus. I think it would have given your eyes some where to wander. Great work 7

I think a black background would work better here, giving more contrast against the white thread and silver metal.

Very extreme close-up, impressive! Looks over-sharpened though.

great shot--your focus is in just the right place. For my taste, the shot would have been better with a more saturate background.
