Clean your fingernail before you take a picture of it.

Interesting how the needle is in focus, but so is the hay in the background. Might have given that magnifying glass a quick wipe before shooting... looks like it has a few smudges.

I really like how the hay under the magnifying glass is a lot larger than the hay elsewhere. Good shot.

This one made me laugh cause I was totally going to try doing a needle in the haystack, but I'm glad I didn't because this one takes takes the cake. 10

Great concept, but the shot could have been better executed... the pin could be be brighter, the figernail could not be dirty, the magnifier could have been more interesting, maybe showing some of the handle.

good concept, bad result. The magnifying glass is dirty, so are your finger nails.

Very good idea, but could have benefitted from different composition and lighting(too harsh).
