Picys like this are not me cuppa tea unless there's something else in the picy other than just a documentary picy of some sweets. The exercise was well worth while though for the experience you gained.....................I spose:-)

thanks for the comments -
Again, this took me hours (but I learned a lot). .Lots and lots and lots of m&ms later, I went with the F32 and the BIG look. The color resulted from many tries with different processing but this one actually had very little.

oh and aam - you may not know this about me but I'll pretty much try anything once. That probably comes with living in NYC.

I don't see why you said you are not sure about this shot Penny. The M&Ms are about to jump out of my screen. I hope they don't because I don't know how I would handle so big M&Ms. Very nice colours and composition.

Wow, F32! Is that even possible? You must calm down lady, or the Diffraction guys will be upset (which is bull). Glad you are brave enough to try it.

Heavy, in-your-face M&Ms. Great color. -tv

Mmmm. I love dark chocolate. They say it's good for you but my waist line disagrees. -Doug
