Thanks for the comments. This was my 35mm f/2 lens reversed on the camera and I had it at f/22 but this was the most DOF I could achieve. I tried to focus on the cogs nearest the center because they had the best color, and I thought it helped show just how many layers were going on inside that thin little watch. I knew it would get marks off for lacking focus/sharpness at the front and back but it was my first attempt at macro so I was happy with it.
At first I entered a close-up of the watch face, but someone's comment on this shot in my portfolio made me switch them to see how it would do. I entered the other shot in my local photography challenge and it got an HM. |

A nice composition but the focus is on the cogs at the back of the picture which makes the whole thing look very soft, either focusing on the front cogs or a greater DOF would aave helped this shot |

Interesting shapes but needs to be sharper overall. |
