1. Nicely done, Peggy!

2. Aw, thank you so much, my dear SheltieLover!

I used my 60 mm macro lens and there is still so much I don't understand about how to really use it.

3. I like the 2nd one best as it draws the eye to the face

No idea about lenses.

Just a spectator here, greatful for abb the fabulous images all you talented photographers share.

4. The Second One!

The detail, the scratches, the date, the wear. All crystal clear! Truly brings forth emotion from an inanimate object. To turn back time and see the life of the person who wore it. Impressive!

Congratulations, Peggy!

5. Wow, thank you so much, my dear Reis . . .

I hadn't seen any of that in my photo. My vision was elsewhere.

I wanted to create a mysterious object, full of shadows and muted colors. And so I felt that I had failed.

You took all of that away.

Thank you!
