There are some nice triangles here. I really like the way you composed this shot. I contemplated shooting a mic of mine the other day, but it had too many dents :(

This is a great macro of a microphone. The shapes and POV combined with the DOF is wonderful. What, no Karaoke track to listen to while viewing?

Micro...phone eh? Got one of these lying around. Should dig it out and try my own hand. Love the DOF choice. My Pref: Should be neat imaged heavily to remove any grain/noise in the shadowed background and then sharpened to a hard pop. (USM and Highpass). Great crop.

Love this image. Caught my eye when looking at your profile. Would love to see a deeper saturation of colors here and a highpass. I think it would have scored much higher and should have even as it is now.

I find the foreground reeds very distracting

Just wondering what this is? Something for tea? I like the textures. Subtle light on the metal.

You shouldn't worry to much about the white balance in the camera. Take a gray card or a WhiBal as reference, shoot in RAW (if possible), and adjust the WB afterwards (but don't use auto WB when you do it this way). Think this macro could use a B&W conversion and a square crop.

Love the composition and detail here, really excellent. I am glad you worked out how to make the best of the colour in this :o)
