 A piece of barbed wire. There are actually four prongs, but I angled the camera so the fourth couldn't be seen. :-)

Another stretching of the topic, but I liked it.

Had the wire held by a vice, then shook the background cloth while taking the picture (the background was wrinkled, adn I didn't want to iron it).

really like the blue as a backdrop - your choice of lighting makes this an interesting shot.

Fun, tight dof here. Nice and sharp. Interesting photo, too. I have one not too unlike this a few challenges ago. Good luck. 9

Awesome! Great colors, perfect composition. The only complaint I have is about the compression artifacts in the top left corner and at the right border between light and dark blue. You use only 56k, so you could probable have avoided the artifacts with less compression. 8

I didn't expect to like this based on the thumbnail, but I keep being drawn back to it. Nice DOF. Great color and contrast. Elegantly simple photo. Hope it does well. (8)
