I am the queen of macro/close up fail, so this is a good one for me!

Here is what I got while cleaning today. The pull out and the close up. All I adjusted on the close up was tweaking the exposure a bit

Its not quite what I was going for but its an improvement. I have some more ideas to play with!

Looking good, I played for a little bit today but didn't get anything I liked. If it would stop raining I could get outside. Will try again tomorrow.

I love it Faye! Try getting just the top with the bottle cap. I have some OLD pepsi bottles in a metal carton so you have inspired me. I'll dust them and try shooting them later.
