 A fork reflected in the back of a spoon. Shot using 32mm of extension tubes on a 50mm lens.

I always talk about finding your audience and how rewarding that is. The overall score was nice, but the score from the commenters is amazing! And on top of that, I got Eyewave's red ribbon. So count me as very happy.

Inspired by Yanko's Luftballon to try a metal macro:

Wow. I love this shot! I think I like the out take you provided a bit more, but both are superb. :) The thought behind it, the lighting, the composition...it works.

Thanks for the mention. I'm happy it brought you some inspiration. I thought this should have finished much higher and if you got more comments (based on that average) it would have.
