*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*
An unusual image that meets the challenge well.
Your unusual viewpoint has made for a fascinating image that gives us a view of the needles that we wouldn't normally be able to appreciate. For instance, I hadn't realised that the tips appear to have a distinctive surface on their lower half presumably to harden and sharpen them.
I am intrigued at the incredibly shallow DOF you have with such a small aperture but your focus is very accurately placed on that lower half of the needle point which emphasises that surface. I like your composition, it works well the OOF background image provides an interesting backdrop that has something of an 'aliens' feel to it. All in all an excellent and true macro as opposed to the many close ups in the challenge, they are indeed truly inanimate. I scored it a 7 during the challenge and would do so again.
Nicely done, thanks for your submission and apologies for the delayed critique, as they say, 'better late than never', or at least I hope it is, Sid |
