Harddrive Fun

Had to get rid of a few old drives so took a few shots of the internals while breaking them up.

Great detail, what a wonderful idea

Another nice set

I was thinking of doing something similar myself as I have a pile of computer bits that are gathering dust.

Wonderfully abstract set. I love no 2.

Thinking of something similar with an ancient motherboard.

Thanks for looking folks, it makes a change from the insects from me

Great set! No 2 for me as well! Any idea what setting you used for this?

 

[Deleted member 3428]

Thanks all for looking
Rob I used 1/200 and f5 on a couple and f10 on the other 2 iso 400, exif data is still in the images. Shot with the canon 40d and mp-e65 for 2 and the Sigma 50 ex f2.8 macro for the other 2. I used flash also, the MT 24 with the mp-e and the 430ex with the sigma shots and diffused the output with plastic diffusers.

Saw these on your Flikr.............good to see some unusual subjects in close up.............easier to keep still than bugs as well
