I used my 60 mm macro lens and there is still so much I don't understand about how to really use it.

The detail, the scratches, the date, the wear. All crystal clear! Truly brings forth emotion from an inanimate object. To turn back time and see the life of the person who wore it. Impressive!

Congratulations, Peggy!

I hadn't seen any of that in my photo. My vision was elsewhere.

I wanted to create a mysterious object, full of shadows and muted colors. And so I felt that I had failed.

You took all of that away.

Thank you!
