Really nice to see how the threads (what's the right name ?) get wider away from the focal point

vibrating strings

Here is one from Cres :)

Beautiful colors. The Heligon?

Thanks, Armando.  "String" is the common term, as in "string instrument".  :)

Fons, #277 is a beautiful image. I really like the way the oof background seems to mirror the in-focus flower heads.

Bus.

Not over-sharpened at all.
Noisy though, might be that the bus is noisy :)

Sharp(ish) and yet unsharp too

This thread has been fascinating to watch unfold (and I really like the way all these different "themes" have evolved over the last few months).

So here's my entry. Not really unsharp enough, yet with limited DOF and trying to take a handlheld macro the end result was always going to be a lottery



(Is this really the state of my fingertips? Must ask for some manly handcream for Christmas!)
