i always thought that when a needle hits a spinning piece of wax, and the ensuing chaos of beats, chirps, and atomic electronic souls release themselves - that this was magic

    WOW
    I love the second one.
    clean, simple, elegant
    Just beautiful

    mind if I ask how you got that white background effect?

    thanks.

    the white effect was a sheet hanging from my wall where i set up a very hasty little 'studio' for a shot i did with paint chips. since the white sheet was very lit up, it created a very ncie bokeh for me for this shot.

    Flawless, I love the first one, depthoffieldphilic, and such clean shoots, I love them iloveyou.gif, and the third one looks so good, the red dot on the... thing that has the needle makes it look better, it gives it a little touch of glamour.

    I was a DJ too :D... naaah I wasn't, I only did some IDM for a while in my PC but I got frustrated as I did on Gore music, hahaha.

    Great Captures, pretty cool, and I saw your Smugmug too... thumb.gifthumbthumb.gif I don't need words anymore :D

    thanks very much for the kind words.

    the last in the series i took the other day with the most PP to get the blue hues, and get rid of the brand name on the side of the needle:

    why not..
    its an excellent shot and why not send the company a version with the brand on it and see if you can sell it to them,and the unbranded one for yourself..greg
