Blood - 16/365

Day 16 of 365; Blood

Using my beer-box ‘macros studio’ to take pictures of the glass beads one of my house mate uses as ‘blood’ in the card game ‘Vampire: The Eternal Struggle’.

Nicely Done...
I had to look at it for a while
to be convinced that it wasn't liquid (or actual blood ).
Great DoF too

Yeah, I realised after posting that the topic perhaps might put some people off - glad people dared to look.

Thanks for the comments people.

cheers,
Phil.

Nice use of DOF, and isolating/illuminating the colour of the beads. Beautiful job.
