Nice image. Great detail, just lacks interest.

Nice macro, and nice colors. I'd like to see the cyan and orange played off each other a bit more, the greenish tint in the background contrasts a bit. Still very nice work.

Almost looks like a fist of a ancient guy they dug up eons ago.
Good focus and nice DOF, but it could have been a bit wider to catch the closest barb.

Would have loved the whole front wire to be in focus and the background to as is. Really nice.

This is a kind of "excellence" picture for me, the details and the colours that are to be found are really wonderful and almost show the inside of the material...
I like this very much, congratulations !!!
