Yeah, it was done with a Nikkor 60mm f2.8 macro. I made a couple dozen shots using different lighting arrangement and colors. The original is for the most part just like the copy I’ve posted here with only the left and right holes having been cropped to achieve some balance. (as shot, I didn’t quiet get all of the hole on the right) Most of the other shots wouldn’t need to be cropped as they were framed a little better. I just liked the results of this one better after running it through Capture NX 2.

Here’s another, if you’re interested. I just used a different approach to lighting in this one. Same grater, no crop, and straight from the camera.
