 Somewhat of a stretch of the Challenge, but it does use three consecutive letters. In fact, if you wish to give me points for four consecutive letters, I would accept them with pleasure.

The image you see is as it came from the camera with the exception of a few cloned out molding problems with the keys. It is amazing what one sees when one gets in close.

I shot this with natural light with my shortest extension tube and my old Pentax 50mm 1:2 lens. Unfortunately, DPChallenge doesn't list this lens. Perhaps we will have to do something about that. Focus and depth of field control was the biggest challenge on this shot.

Please enjoy and I look forward to your comments.

Not a bad idea. The title works, but there's nothing in your photo to hold my interest for long.

this made me laugh! :) creative idea!! :) I really hope you don't get bashed for having 4 words in your 'title' - I gave this one a 10, its execution is great, and I like how the keys kind of 'glow' on the letters/numbers - goodluck! :)

Good colour. Good composition. And clever use of the title.
