Just wanted to do something strong in color for a change, I usually lean towards B&W or desaturated images. I picked up some translucent colorful thumbtacks and stuck them into some foam board.

Editing included- convert from Raw, slight crop,levels adj, curves adj, saturation adjust, resize, add border, and sharpened with USM.

cool idea. cool colors. the light reflections on the front pins are a bit harsh for me.

good dof and composition

Cool, this would make a good print.

So simple but effective. Excellent shallow focus only on the subject. This must be a very fast lens. It looks like the on-camera flash was used. Side or diffused lighting would have helped.

good D of F and sharp as a pin:) my only nit is the lines of the other pins, the effect seems to give the feeling the picture is sloping to the left

I enjoy the single focus of the green tack, but it just seems staged.

I would have liked to have seen this inserted into the board.....great concept, good composition, and well executed.

Nice job. I like your choice of colors for this one. Very vibrant.

Perfect DOF! The green one would have stood out anyway but gets extra oomph from the focus. I like the curvy line of the composition. Nit: there's a little too much space on top; it feels like it would be better balanced if the pins in the back were at a sharper angle instead of straightening out.

The depth of field is bit to narrow for me, but nice colors and nice composition.
