spinny top


I was spinning that top on a park bench and came in close with my macro lens. Tried to capture the momentum and some detail.

Thanks so much for looking and the kind words! I'm glad this photo got views and responses It took me quite a while to get a good photo, because this is all handheld and with natural light.
But I was hoping the photo would get at least one like.. could have used it for the contest last night

Very cool looks like those gaps in the boards are big enough to end the spin !

Oh wow, I am glad I posted this photo, didn't think it would get such nice replies!

Yes, but the texture of the wood actually helped keep it spinning in one spot, so I didn't have to chase it around with the lens!
