thanks, actually they were in pretty ragged shape, i only took 1 pic before polishing just so i could see my own progress. the little scratches shown were the least of the damage, i didn't think the uglier looking stuff would come out, but it did there was a SUPER deep gouge that i can't believe was sanded/polished out

You can achieve that by setting the aperture to it's smallest size (biggest number). You may need to use a tripod or more lighting to prevent blur from camera shake.
i agree 100%

just getting artsy fartsy with the depth of field... also i've shot several weddings and worked with a friend who now runs a photo studio, so i know a thing or two about the technical aspects of using a camera, unfortunately i barely pick up a camera these days and haven't shot FILM in years :/

definitely need to get a remote, these were quick shots i took just for fun
