B&W makes it. There's a scratch that needs to be removed just a little above and to the left of centre. Maybe clean up a few spots here and there too.

A nice B&W picture. Not sure about cleaning up the picture, but simon does have a point. I might have increased the contrast myself to perhaps accentuate the shadows on the gears, but this is minor. The picture itself is very good, and interesting if oddball subject, and a good perspective. I look forward to more of your work.

Nice close up. Lots of detail texture to this old thing. You did very well with the depth of field. Lots of neat little shadows too. Black and white is perfect for this. As for the "scratch", maybe better without it but I see a lot of little spiderwebs in closeups like this. The little buggers are everywhere! But you never see em till ya look real close. Welcome to Caedes. Great first Post
