Last Entry is Midnight 24/02/08, then a 5 day Poll...

OK - February, not the most literal of themes, something you may have to get your heads around a bit to come up with something that isn't just another macro close-up.

"It's a Small World."

Oh yeah - Panasonic DMC-FZ81. Just cropped in MS Paint, nothing else.

I've highlighted the theme of the month for you. Had to read it twice myself to get it.

Hey - it was a small title.

Not 100% sure what you’re after, but presume from what you’ve said something more creative than just plain macro stuff.

To that end here’s one I did which gives an unusual effect.

A plain glass of water standing on a picture of a globe with a little fork oil (red)floating on the surface and stirred.

Cannon 350d standard kit lens, image round cropped but otherwise as shot.

That's awesome Mark.

Yeah - I didn't want to over explain it - just let's folks get creative with something that illustrates, well, that it can be a small world, just depends on your viewpoint...
... or take a goldfish - their world is the size of thier tank...
... or emailing Australia and getting a reply within seconds...
... stuff.

Mine was a stone marble (granite I think) that I have that I've always thought looked like some far off moon like Titan or something - just messed around getting a cold, numb arm a couple of days ago when the sun finally came out.

Is it not part of the rules for no enhancements

Seems rather unfair to anyone that does not possess those editing skills but can take a good photograph.
