@peterdegraaff tx Peter! too funny! i had a few that did... those got tossed because i didn't like the angle, but my husband gave me all sorts of grief, grilling me as to whether i got it on the drop or the rebound ;p
Personally, I think its an amazing feat in both simplicity and technique. It speaks volumes yet holds a a presence of just being what it is. Stunning capture for me. Fav
@northy this really comes down to the roll of pin heads and pin points in the division of labour. If there are too many pin heads in the factory for all the points being made something will go awry.
Have to fav it for your stubborness as well as an awesome catch :)
I probably would have given up & done something with cotton tied around the pin & PS'd it out after a bit!!!
The lighting is fantastic!
Cleaning rust in PSE -> I would try either using the sponge tool to desaturate it or the clone tool. A difficult one with such a small surface. I'd probably find a clean pin. ;)
If a pin drops on a plate in Northy's home, but no one is there to hear it, did it really fall? Looks like the answer is affirmative :) splendid capture.
I would have loved to see you working to get the perfect shot... the final is worth all the time it may have taken you! + the lighting is awesome!! beautiful capture...
@humphreyhippo well yes - a clean pin would have been a brilliant move... sadly my eyes are older than i feel and it LOOKED clean until i looked at it on the screen ;p
Wow Norhy!! Patience is a virtue and you did well on this!!! I can't even begin to think how many shots and how long ... you stuck with it and you created an incredible shot!! Way to stay with it!! It's a stop and behold shot!! def Fav!!
a quiet kind of anxiety :)
