Mundane Paperclip 2

Another entry for the mundane paper clip challenge. This shot was originally in color- a bunch of silver paperclips with one gold one on top placed on a white plate, then converted to black and white and the gold paperclip painted back in. I like the way the selective coloring brings out the paper clip, but it might be a style that's been overdone. It was still fun to do.

@sangwann Thank you Dione!

Thanks to all- it's a decent shot but I don't think it will catch the fancy of the judges in this competition. I enjoyed taking and processing it though.

[Carole Imes]

Interesting creative effort. Well done!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I think it's cool! Wish we had bronzey paperclips...!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@daisy Thank you Kathryn!
@filsie65 Thank you Phil! I'm not really sure where this came from. It's the only one I have and I've never bought a box of them. So who knows!

[Mrs. Smith]

Creative work!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@mrssmith Thank you Carla!

[AutomaticSlim]

Nicely done, Ann.

[Bev]

Very creative. I like how you have the one paper clip on top that doesn't look like the others. It stands out on its own. Very well thought up. Nice one.

@automaticslim @prttblues

Thank you Andy and Bev! Although I like this, I'm afraid it's one of those shots that's "been done already". Glad you like it too!

[Joanna Payne]

The selective colouring works really well here, don't worry!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@joannapayne Thank you Joanna!

[summerfield]

very nice, ann. only in 365 can one see something so beautiful and yet so mundane!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@summerfield Thank you Vikki. I felt like a thousand people would do the same thing, but I saw the shot in my mind and decided to go for it anyway.
