 Distance doesn't have to be represented by something far away. Distance can also be minimal.

Got a reverse mount ring and am now playing with macros.

Have fun with those reverse macros - they sure are addictive. :) This is a great illustration of distance - especially in the macro world, where depth of field is so miniscule.

God it can be depressing how you can get 'punished' for trying out new things. Maybe the tape measured scared the chaps lol

As has been said not necessarily a dpc friendly image but I love the fact that you experiment and hope that you were not too fed up with the score

Just not DPC friendly, however, it is a good macro and as you say, you were playing with it.

What? Not even a 5???? Crap.
I gave this a 10... I thought it was brilliant. Gorgeous colors, DOF, composition, and I LOVED how it conveyed "distance" without going the "long distance" route.

Love this, Michelle! DOF and colors are awesome. Has a great grungy feel to it. Too bad it was underappreciated by the voters.

I'm speechless. At least you didn't get the brown.

Great colors and composition. I like the image, it puts a smile on my face, but sad it didn't score higher.

Quirky choice.

I like the grungy look and the citrusy hues.

too shallow DOF. Not enough of subject in photo.

The dof makes this picture hard to look at.

I like the idea of the shallow DoF. But what is the green/red dominants?
