 The title is a way to remember SIN, COS, TAN in an angle.

It's a calculator btw. Loved and adored by all. Oh and the number buttons really are off-white by now.

I keep entering challenges and I don't know why. I'm must be on burnout, because I do not care how this does.

Not much editing:crop, HSL, brightness/contrast, resize, sharpen

Let's see... score predict: 5.4321

POST: yessss I screwed up the title. Submitted this at the very last minute and just was not thinking. Thanks to all the boys who wanted to correct me lol. BTW - SIN, COS, and TAN are what is in focus in the pic.

I learned something by having to look up your title. (And I found the answer using your spelling. Must be valid!!) I think you were a bit too subtle for a good score, but nevertheless, you have a good image. I'm impressed with your DOF singling out the three buttons of SOCATOA.

Hmmm... looks like Blue Valley High School did me WRONG! I've never heard of this little "reminder". Still love the idea, and you did a wonderful job getting your subjects in perfect focus.

I like the dof you created on this shot although I will confess that sines and cosines are all Greek to me

Sorry you are feeling challenge burnout, I guess that fighting through it is a positive step to take

I always maintain that the bottom line is not how a picture scores but how you feel about it and that you enjoyed taking it, the rest is a mere bagatelle

Lol, I love the comments below. Rinse, repeat, recycle. The best cure for burnout is to take more pictures. Trust me! :)

That little mnemonic got me through college. With a BS in Physics I used it all of the time.

I can't even pronounce that! What language you speak?

Must be a "Foreign Make", huh?

A nice detailed macro, but i'm not finding anything that stands out to me.

You spelt your mnemonic wrong!

SOHCAHTOA sine = opposite / hypotenuse; cosine = adjacent / hypotenuse; tangent = opposite / adjacent. Calculators do indeed cause mathematical illiteracy ;-) Bad joke, I expect...
