20080118 - Red Shark

Part of the January Macro challenge :) Others are in the forum http://forum.pbase.com/viewtopic.php?t=35665

This colour's real - ye-olde red filter from ye-olde days of black&white - held in front of the flash though as it's too small to fit on the lens.

Yesterday's pikky...

...was yep, clip-clop, giddy-up - a horseshoe. Two too easy ones on the trot (groan). Must try harder!

Shameless plug for today's high quality, artistically elite self-portrait :)

Superb lines, curves, glows and repeats, makes a stunning macro image. My first thought was a cog or chain of some sort, but I'm sure I'm a mile off
