    #1: agree...intriguing.
    #5: b&w makes the textures pop. The depth of field is great on this..

    I agree. #1 or #5. IMO the upper right corner on #1 is a little distracting though. Maybe a different crop?

    sharpness?
    Thanks for the feedback everyone!

    #1 is really a detail shot too. I shot it RAW with a very sharp lens.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to reduce the image size and still retain the detail and sharpness from the original?

    I use photoshop's image size command, and I reduce using 'bicubic sharper.' Anyone do it differently?

    Cheers!

    I really like #1, the angle, the color. Would it be more on theme if the shadows were stronger (like they are towards the bottom of the shot)?
