I really have no idea how this will go over. I assume it will fall completely flat, and that it will get between 5.0 and 5.2. Personally, I like it, but I made it, so that's probably why.
This is tatting, btw.

at 5.7 for the moment. I actually thought that people would vote it down because it's basically a picture of something two dimensional so not a very interesting photo. But I figured, what the heck, there's a purpose for photographing flat things! And I did play around with the lighting and selecting side lighting.
I learned tatting because I like hobbies that are not well known. I actually haven't made anything for awhile, I think I'll go find my materials...!

Holy Cow!! You're a tatter? Awesome hobby, but I'm undecided about the picture. It's a bit harsh for something so delicate. But it also shows off the incredible detail. See? Undecided.
This is wonderful in its dual tones of stark black background and white interlacing crochet. The repeating patterns are not only delicate but supremely beautiful. This diamond of absolutes just glitters with patience, creativity and talent.
