 I think I did this right for once. A tri-pod, a really bright news-TV-type lamp bouncing around the kitchen. A high aperature 22 or something, shutter timer ... 200 iso ... Maybe I'm learning something. Used global filters: levels, shad/HL, curves - sharpened and reduced noise globally in Photoshop, used hue/sat globally for duotone effect.

Indeed, worthy of exhumation. Now for the autopsy. Lovely combination of steely water and aluminum reflections. Challenges are so limiting when it comes to appreciation of beauty! ;-)

This is awesome and should have scored higher. I am biased, however.

I like the sharpness in this image and the reflection from both metal and water.

well photographed - wonderful composition with using the water and lighting it in such a manner as to emphasize the shiny metal... great job

Superbly sharp and well llit. Great contrast. Like how it's cropped. One of my favorites for it's luminescent quality. 10
