    Re: Assignment 26 - Sharpness

    I thought I was going to have to double-check the AFMA for all my lenses when I saw the subject, but I like your interpretation of sharpness, Neuro.

    Good start, Bob. How big is that blade? Looks like it's sharp enough to cut your arm off, not just your hairs.

    I'll try my luck with this prickly pear cactus from South Plaza island in the Galpagos.

    I didn't want to go with the route of a macro shot for this assignment so how about a jet cutting through the air?

    Andy, Its total length is 39 inches, exposed blade length is 27.5 inches and yes it would probably cut anything off of a human that you wanted to cut off---it probably already has
