 A bit of an inside joke.
I make my own jewelery, which includes using wire and turning it into something relatively original, such as this little twisted piece.

Taken in jpeg format.
Image was rotated, cropped in Adobe Lightroom.
- Turned into grayscale, applied the filter of direct positive and made minor adjustments afterwards.
Resized in Apple's preview.

I love the lighting, the shapes and the detail of the chewed up wire. One of my favorites.

Very cool! The middle piece reminds me of something one of my friends made in welding class. The lighting here might be a tad harsh, but I think it works well with the metal.

That looks like it took alot of work. Nicely done. I think it could have done without the plyers though.

Hmm, I like this a lot. It's subtle. You laid out the components of the image well, and the lighting really works with the wire. Good job =) - 7

I know that the finished product is in the middle for balance, but the logic center of my brain tells me the objects are out of order :-)
