    Does this qualify as macro?

    Trying something other than flowers or bugs...although we have a gazillion japanese ladybugs if I wanted one.

    Oh Yeah!

    Not only does it qualify it is very good. I would have liked to see those ends a little sharper but over all the image is very nice. The use of b&w here was an excellent choice.

    Thank you!

    On the larger file, the crusty part looks sharper, more defined, or are you talking about the other end?

    Thank you!

    My reference was to the crusty part. I just thought it looked a little soft. But I loved your subject and the composition.

    they have a reasonable explanation

    Lol

    housewife photography is so unpredicatble...so often it depends on what's in the kitchen or on sale-he he.... Some day I want a coffee table book(really) with images taken by stay at home housewives and housedads of objects and images found while raising kids...

    unfortunately I priced what it would cost having no national recognition and each book would be about $30-40 to produce---oh well back to dreamworld
