Excellent shot - it looks almost metalic.

Thanks all :D

JP, this was one of those pain in the ass images to sharpen with out getting blowing out.
I ended up settling on these settings, still not happy but I like it.
The only PS here is sharpening, curves & B&W convertion.

Cheers
Ray :P

Agree - nice subject, texture - looks sharp to me - well captured. Only comment IMHO is that its a bit dark for my taste and could do with some lightening - think you could do so without spoiling the desired mood.

Totally agree MHD. I'm being amazed at the standard of shot that didn't even make it.

Cheers to xerubus for such a challenging and inspiring theme too.
