Great shot. The black and white brings out the texture.

Cool shot and rather moody the way the numbers get smaller and more obscure!

Terrific tones and textures ... you could get lost in the depth of detail ... great work!

Terrific razor-thin depth of field - the subtle horizontal lines provides for a nice 'wood grain' feel and really brings out the detail. (The numbers have me wondering if you are pulling some mathematical educational technique like Oswegan ;-)

Interesting effect with the DOF. It reveals the wood texture, perhaps better that with a 100% sharp picture. Interesting pictural research...

Before I saw that it was a locker number, I just assumed it was a hotel number. I had already starting putting together the story in my head. Nice shot.

Your macros are always very cool, and this one is no exception. The b+w treatment works very well, keeping your attention on those numbers. Great job!

Nice macro shot!

Nice shot. I woiuld have used a slightly larger dof but I don't know how much control you have over that. I like the angle and the textures here.

Better, I suppose, than 1408.
