Well done Doug. Excellent exposure esp. contrast and detail for such reflective surfaces. Neat industrial shot. -tv

Thanks John and Rod. I'm an automotive technician of 20 years. I've sneaked a few shots of my shop in before. On this particular rotor the specification is .002" or less. For the record, I used my S2 because there is no way I was bring my 400D into this extremely dusty environment. -Doug

Nicely done Doug & you did very well with the B&W conversion which does make the picy more industrial. Do you work on a Lathe (sp) In my game of pipe fitting we have to work to a tolerance of a 1/4" as I can fill the gap when I weld the pipe but on a Lathe you have to be so exact & get it to at least 1/8":-)hehe

I like all three Doug. I'm partial to color so I like that one too but I especially like the close up due to the flying metal shavings. John
