I like both the title (thanks, Mel) and the shapes and textures of this one so I'm trying it again, this time in the Union Monthly Theme.

Clevis and Cotter--sounds like a team of detectives, doesn't it? :) Knew what a cotter was, but never heard of a clevis. Nicely done macro, Nikki, with its combination of composition, light, and texture. #7931961Jeana Clark September 10, 2009
