Looks pretty cool, John. It would be stunning if the lower part was in as good a focus as the upper, but I know the challenge. To others viewing, click on image and see on a darker border, it makes a difference!

I want to go back and reshoot to try and get it all in focus, but the display is extremely dimly lit, and I'll have to try juggling f stop and ISO. This time I'll take the D3s...:)

Well done, it does draw you in. Can't tell the size of it, is it a large piece?
