 This is an old motherboard I found in my garage. It's been rotting there for many years (it's a Pentium 1 motherboard). Now this is just expensive garbage. What used to cost 200$ is not worth 5$ today...

Electric circuits make very weird textures. That's why I decided to post this as my first challenge entry :)

big frame for such a small image. Well taken though, like the dof

Maybe having the light off to the side more to get some shadows off the solder points would bring out highlights more. Nice shot.

I like the richness and the contrasts of the colors in this shot.

You got the title right... lol....no need for the expansive border

Pretty colours; you don't see orange enough. I like this, though the little reflection of light on the right is distracting.

hahaha, with some hardware you are dead on...nice form of texture.
 02/20/2004 06:18:24 AM
This shows the textures well, but the title throws me completely. The title is NOT part of the rating a picture gets.

I like the compositio & colour here. Maybe a little more DOF would be good, but overall a pleasing image
 02/19/2004 05:06:53 PM
DOF is too shallow
 02/19/2004 09:31:53 AM
goood detail and DOF
 02/18/2004 07:50:35 PM
I see the texture, but the subject and composition just don't hold my interest.
 02/18/2004 07:40:39 PM
I'm back to comment. The DOF is great, and of course, the electronic texture is beautiful and detailed. Beautiful colors too. Great job...

I love to see something diferent. Love your macro and DOF! Good Luck
 02/18/2004 05:04:00 AM
I think this is pattern rather than texture - don;t get mucvh sense of smoothness or of the regularity of the interruptions of it from those paths. Kind of interesting image, though the extreme shallow dof perhaps just serves to preclude some interest.

hehehe neat textures, and based on your title, could have also been used for the "garage art" entree.
