It's simply a matter of time...

Arranging and lighting the components in this image was a large challenge. It was shot through an inexpensive Nikon Series E 70 - 210mm Macro lens using two fixed diffused lamps and an SB800 on camera.

Mark, is that the 70-210 f/4? It actually has a fine reputation for image quality. I had one and regrettably let it go.

It is quite sharp and has nice color. Good work.

You did a nice job with all these shiney parts! The only harsh reflections are near the top of the image, otherwise it's very well done. I like the composition.
