 In the continuing saga of me teaching my daughter photography....
My daughter wasn't interested in this challenge but I figured I'd give it a shot on my own. I hope one of next weeks challenges will pique her interest. Luckily, she's still learning even when just watching me take a photo. This week she learned how to clean the sensor(don't tell her but my sensor still looks like poo. possibly even worse than before I "cleaned" it). I showed her what should be done, apparently just not how to do it well. lol.

Although I didn't vote (I don't vote on challenges in which I am entered), this was one that really caught my eye. Welcome back, Crystal!

p.s. What lens and aperture did you use for this capture?

Yep, you haven't lost a step. Very nicely done, even with a dirty sensor.

Knew this was page one as soon as I saw it. Terrific capture of the simple things we usually overlook.

Very observant, I had never noticed this on a clothes pin. Wonderful focus and extraordinary creativity.

Simple and graphic, sharp and enahnced by b/w treatment. I'm glad you show just a bit of the upper coils of the clothspin spring, as that goes well with the detail in the center of the loop. Should score well.

Great eye.

Awesome macro and a nice fit into the challenge topic. I like the tonal range you captured here. Yo have tons of grays, but also some nice black and some popping whites in your subtle highlights. This has been the best duotoned image that I have ran across in the challenge thus far. I would like to see a bit different composition, though. I think a taller rectangular composition would serve it better. As it is, it is almost square, but awkwardly not square. I would have gone a little more one way or the other. Even still, nice capture. It gets a 6 as my vote.
