After getting my bargain Tamron 90mm SP AF Di Macro(on the advice of a few other TP'ers) I thought I would play skittles with it...

Now these may look washed out as I'm posting from my works machine and I haven't had time to calibrate it yet but please CC away :)

Really like the colour of number two. The green lime is lovely.

Thanks for the response, much appreciated

I personally am a fan of #1. Just some skittles and a coffee cup shot sitting on an open page of a book. I think it has a slightly 'weird' feel to it. And slightly 'weird' is me all over :)

1 for me is too abstract, but good in its own way.
2 :thumbs: as everyone else has said too
3 is a pile of skittles

I think number 1 for me is a bit 'wierd' because its a compositional thing...I don't expect the coffee cup or the laptop to be there, if you see what I mean....and that does all sorts of things to my brain :D

#2 is my fave, I just wanna give that lime a squeeze :D
