I was sitting there with fuzzy edges, then out of the sky came a red swish! In popped Crop Man. He said "Stand back! I'll take care of this!" and with his eyes glowing red he cried "Croppy doodle dandy!" and then then flew off in a flash. I rubbed my eyes and to my surprise the photo was somehow better. I look forward to my next meeting with Crop Man :-) - Shay

Great mag shot Shay, but how do you tell which one is which. Go Saltines!! Seriously though, I have found that with such mag shots the DOF is quite limited with the egdes always prone to get a bit blurred, but seem to have overcome this problem. Any tips? (debadguy)

I used a 12x magnifying glass just above the sugar and salt then pointed the camera at the lens of the magnifying glass. After taking the picture, I cropped the dark edges out.
