Hi Hugo Thanks for your nice comment, actually the cob web inspired me to go this far with the capture, just got caught playing with PSP. I will encolse the original, very dull picture :-) Ivan
Hi Ivan, The DOF in this shot is a key element; that, together with the grim and gloomy tones create a very strong atmosphere. Very moody, industrial shot. Beautiful contrasts and textures, too. Have you deliberately left the cob webs in the top teeth of the wheel?
I like the way the dark shape in the background seems to curve itself around the gear, very well balanced. Impressive shot.
