    I really wanted to push the copper to give it a more gold look. I wanted to take something that many of us Americans think that is of no real value and show that it truly is.

    I used a reverse lens technique on this shot, 42mm setup with a reversed 50mm prime lens, quite difficult to do:p

      Gorgeous capture! great macro work. I actually like the increased contrast and saturated that you did here, since it's for a specific theme.
