 Another in my quest to get a brown ribbon with a shot I like.
Shooting for a safe macro I got this and while it was not at all what I was shooting for, I really liked it. It reminds me enough of Ben's quiet, almost aquatic feel that I decided to shoehorn it in here for giggles. I'm guessing 4.8, but hoping for lower.

BTW these are strands of a peacock tail feather

Dark yet rich. Looks like plastic optic.

That about covers it all! More of the first two than the latter, but what the hell.
