    Not an easy subject, especially to shoot macro. He was in one of his moods where he just wanted to sleep and did not want to look directly at me.
    I had a bunch of ideas, and decided to go for one of the more difficult (and it shows in the soft focus, he moved in toward me about a half inch).

    Also my first time manipulating RAW.

    It's not upside down ha you're looking down at it. If I flipped it it would appear you were looking up at it haha not to mention that my ceiling would be carpeted and gravity reversed . . .

    I just like 12 fret, slothead, shortscale, couch-guitars :)
