hehe cool DoF is spot on mate
Hey - film camera cuff links. Very smart
Seriously, a great Duo - and I hope your lovely thoughtful wife was duly thanked.

I always like pictures with silver objects in them and this is no exception. Nice subject well executed, well done
Oh how funky are those!
Really like the DOF on these, and it fits the theme spot on, without a question
Your Letter picture made me LOL
I know this sounds like a cop out but I just love everything about it.
Duo - what a great present, excellent DoF and love the composition too. Lighting is spot on too
I love cuff links and would wear them all the time but as I hate anything round my wrists double cuffs are reserved for special occasions. These are fab, where did you find them?
Anyway the shot - I think it's great, the DoF, composition and exposure is all spot on
Hey! what an excellent find, and a great idea for the theme! i like it! good job to get that tiny DOF on such a small subject.
What Lens? any macro filters?
I thought u were gonna say it was a nifty really need to get myself one of them. still trying to convince the other half that i NEED the 70-300 i just bought whilst trying to pay off a wedding!The lens was my 50mm f1.8 with one of my Jessops extension tubes fitted so I could fill the frame and achieve the right amount dof.
I love it, what a sweetie that mouse is, and how clever to give an inanimate object feelings. it really does look like its pleading for the cheese!!
The focussing is fab with the cheese just hinted at alongside the clarity of the mouse.
super
This made me laugh out loud What a longing pose from the mouse. Apart from wanting a tiny little more clarity on the cheese it's fab
Dark, Superb shot Well and evenly lit, well composed and just a hint of reflection in the darkness around the card.. and of course the ace of spades being quite dark in and of itself. The only thing I noticed and it's really small, there appears to be some dirt around the top right corner of the card, I probably wouldn't have noticed it had it been on one of the other corners, but that corner is very prominent.
I like the mouse, although it doesn't appear to be longing anymore, more smug...
Really like the Dark shot, done that very well.
That little mouse makes me go 'ahh' and laugh all at the same time, I think it works well with the grater. I can just see he's looking at the cheese that's about to be grated and land infront of him[which is quite shocking really considering he's a model ]
Longing - that actually made me laugh - very clever, I think the cheese could have been a touch more in focus but it is still a great shot.
Dark - Good composition, nice and simple
Longing Reshoot - I'm a bit disturbed by this the idea of a mouse with a sharp cheese grater isn't good - I think it actually needs some cheese to make the image.
Duo , really well composed and a nice surprise for you.
Longing, as above really well composed, with the added benefit of making me laugh.
Dark, took me a moment to get it. :bonk:
I'd be interested to know how you achieved this shot.
All in all three very good weeks for you I think.

I prefer the original longing shot - but would like the cheese to be more in focus. The lack of cheese waiting to be eaten in the second leaves it open to interpretation and I can see why some would see the little mouse as smug rather than longing... he does look pretty pleased with himself!

There's so much I like about this shot, but the texture is one of them!
I think you've lit this really well, turning a simple object into a very interesting one!
Yes that works really well...lovely lighting...
and nicely placed in the frame, pity it's got a tiny reflection of you (I think) but don't ask me how you could get around this...
but it still very good...
