CLOSE UP (MACRO) Weekly Photography Challenge

by Darren Rowse ~ September 30th, 2011

This week your challenge is to take and share a photo/s on the theme of ‘Close Up’. The idea came from the many people who suggested that we do a Macro challenge on our Facebook Page.

I know not everyone has a camera or lenses capable of true Macro photography – so thought I’d make it slightly more general with ‘Close Up’ and hope that it’ll allow others to participate to the extend that their gear allows.

Need some tips and Inspiration? Here’s some tutorials and image collections from our archives:

Once you’ve taken your ‘Close Up’ Images – choose your best 1-2, upload them to your favourite photo sharing site and either share a link to them or – embed them in the comments using the our new tool to do so.

If you tag your photos on Flickr, Instagram, Twitter or other sites with Tagging tag them as #DPSCLOSEUPto help others find them. Linking back to this page might also help others know what you’re doing so that they can share in the fun.

Also – don’t forget to check out some of the great shots posted in last weeks KIDS challenge where there were some great shots submitted.
