    I sold my macro lens so...

    This photo was taken using the macro setting on my EF 28-135 mm IS, mounted on a Canon 50D, no flash. This is an unprocessed jpeg right out of the camera.

    I call it "Mont-ster Dimes" :D

    Great stuff this week :cool: Love that wood shaving, Monte.

    Keeping inline with the shaver BS, I decided to shoot what I shave with :)

    Been a double edge single blade convert for 3 years!

    Also, sorry it's not super "macro" that's all I could do with my kit lens...

    I think this has been my favorite challenge so far. I certainly took the most for this one. I'll flood the other thread with the others. Here is mine, straight off the camera.

    yah it works, but a couple people questioning the validity of it as it looked similar to something theyve seen before

    It's appearing here.
    Just keep in mind rule say it needs to be taken this week.

    Someone expressed the concern that the domain was suspect, but breaking it down.... akamai has been a very large provider for a long time, it's no surprise that the domain has been associated with malware... but the prefix "fbcdn" looks like a Canadian Facebook server.
    https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/856328_10152590269810253_927744660_o.jpg

    In the future, rather than linking it, just upload it as an attachment and then IMG the attachment location. I've got a shytabyte of storage space on my personal web server and Photobucket, but if I'm on a forum that allows attachments without restrictions, I prefer to go that way just for reliability. Some people work at companies that block Facebook and Photobucket, and sometimes IT problems take those sites down.

    Here is my submission for "macro", taken a few days ago while I was on vacation in Florida. The timing for this challenge was great, as I had just bought a new macro lens a couple weeks ago.
