Metals, they rust, they shine, they're dark, they're light, they're valuable or very cheap. For this contest, we're looking for photos containing metal in some form or another. Something unusual would be great. You could go for an abstract shot, or something more traditional. Think about the texture of metal and effects you can create with it. Watch out for errant reflections! You'll probably run into problems if you use direct flash, as you'll get unsightly overexposed spots, so look out for that.
The rules of the contest are thus: Find a metal, or multiple metals, and photograph them.
Status: finished. Check out the winners below!

OK I think I might be going too heavy on my high pass....it's like a new toy for me. If you wouldn't mind when you see entries that seem a tad over sharpened to your eye can you mention it in your review....most likely they will be mind. Thanks. Think I have to be more careful.

Yes I used to do that as well. The trick to fine clarity is to use the finest lines in the high pass sharpening process.
purrrrrrrfect. Love this one, sharp and clear and eye catching.
Congrats Heathcliffe, terrific shot

Congratulations on this exquisite win.
Did you use high pass to sharpen? IF so what percentage? Thanks
Yes high pass sharpening - but only so so slight so that you can only just see any threadlike lines appearing before you overlay blend it
