This was put together in the last 10 minutes.

My DOF wasn't quite as far forward as it could be, but i'm tired and going to bed. There's another version of this shot where the background and card tilt angle weren't quite perfect, but the focus was.
Bah. I likes it.

Everyone should challenge themselves to reproduce the photo from an ad. It's mighty fun.

... on another note, I really should clean my sensor.

And the reason for the 2 threads? I screwed up my title, and it wouldn't let me just edit the title for some reason.

    You should try multiple shots with the focus set a bit different throughout the range of the card and then smush'em together in PS.
    I also see you've got more detail than the ad. I suppose they chopped out the inner terminals.
