 Tried shooting at some high ISOs - would have prefered to remove some noise by spot editing but its a no no in basic rules. Only shows a little on the transition from black to blur.

I like the use of monocrome on this shot, it helps to draw out the little details. I might have cropped off some of the negative space on the left and would have skipped the frame, it just seems too white vs the subject.

That's old! But needs more DOF for a good macro.
