Hi Nator, first of all i used 3 different thickness of guitar strings tangled on each other. I also used a macro lens with f3.5, placed approx~ 7cm close to the focus point and set center weighted averaging for the metering on the camera. Snap it with 1/2++(can't remember) shutter speed, thats it. I believed the variants of dof (ghosting) existed because of the different thickness of the strings and that 'selective blurring' is coz of the metering and lighting. Thank you.
Somehow i find it Photoshopped ..as the reflections on the Curls shows Sunset yellow and the Sky is Blue... good Though .

No. It is not photoshopped...and it is no sunset.The curls are paint with glossy orange....and the reflections are from the afternoon sun! It is ok now?

It's not chopped. You just caught the light at the right angle. Well done. GL!

Actually, the day after the contest was posted, I had a portrait shoot a few miles away, I went into a dollar store to find a few simple props for a childs photo and found these next to the counter...fate?
