    Default January Challenge - Macro - Entries ONLY

    The theme for the first challenge of 2012 is Macro Photography.

    Most digital compacts have a macro setting and using the right lenses on (D)SLRs will produce some good results, so I think it's a theme that everyone can have a go at.

    Some info here:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrophotography
    http://photo.net/learn/macro/

    Shots must be taken and posted between now and midnight on Jan 31st.

    Happy shooting
