Superb macro as mentioned earlier. What a great eye you have for macro images. Last 3 Challenges and your missing a ribbon by the narrowest of margins. Keep it up. Your work has made me look at that Tokina AF 100mm f/2.8 Macro AT-X M100 Pro D for Nikon coupled with the D80 and it's super CCD. 10.

Was hoping this would do well. My 10 helped and I'm happy it ended up in 4th. Now hand in your original please so this great image stays where it deserves.

Holy cow! This is unbelievable and would have ribboned in most other free studies, but you had some serious competition against you.

Wonderful macro, well setup by removing the top half of the seeds to get a flat plane to focus on, great PP.
