i love the way you've used colour and depth of field in this, it works really well.

Woa! I love this! I could never get my camera to focus right on close-ups and my color never came out right. This is beautifully developed. Is it digital or film? If it's film, do you develop it yourself? I love the colors and the contrasting values on the lock. Very nice.

Thanks! I have a macro setting on my camera, and it goes as close as 7 mm I think. On SLRs, I'm not sure what you have to do, as mine doesn't go that close. You may have to get a separate lens or something. For depth of field, you can mess with the aperture settings, like with a smaller aperture, you fet a bigger depth of field, but I think the camera has its own limits for macros, like it does with zoom. The best I can advise is taking a high quality picture and cropping it, then blurring the background with photoshop or something. That's what I had to do before I got my digital. And yes, it's digital. When I was in photo in school, we rolled and developed our own film and made prints in the darkroom, and I still have access, but I'm too lazy to go through all that trouble when I have a perfectly fine digital camera. Occasionally I'll use the SLR, but with color film and developed in a store. The school developing chemicals are for b&w only anyway.

Haha, wow I wrote a novel. Hope I helped..
