 This is the inside of a fishing reel. The challenge coincided with my need to service my fishing gear. I have a lot of trouble trying to DOF in these macro shots but still have fun experimenting.

increased depth of field would have made this appeal a little more to this voter

Nice detail on the spring lock action. I can almost see the spring uncocking.

I like how you creativly used shallow DOF to enhance the 'spring'. It nicely compliments the title of your photo.

I would have liked it better if it were sharper in general.

A bit too shallow in the background, I'd have liked a larger DOF. Nice macro, I like the many details and the dirt. Fits the challenge very well. It would have done better as b&w though. 6.
