Pre- Mono Monday: Sharp

posted in: Miscellaneous | 0

My month-long stint as custodian of Mono Monday begins tomorrow, and my topics, as promised (and appropriately for someone as lazy as me), are pretty basic: the theme tomorrow is Sharp.

Straying off-topic for a minute, thanks need to go to WalkingWombat for coming up with the idea of May Macro Mayhem, and to her panel of guest judges for taking on the unenviable task of choosing favourites from the hundreds of submissions. This shot is my final entry for this challenge – it was taken with the 21mm extension tube on my favourite 85mm lens. And staying with macro, I just picked up the following news from Wombat Hollow, which will cheer up those of us with such full-blown macro mania that we’re already experiencing anticipatory withdrawal symptoms:

“Some good news though. Happy to announce that as from Tuesday we are asking blippers who are mad on macro to tag a macro image taken on a Tuesday with #tinytuesday.  It will allow us to tag our image and then follow the macros posted by other blippers on that day.  We can practise our hearts out in readiness for another magical month next year.”

Hooray!
