Macro Untouched
All work must be in macro mode with no changes to the image, composition and lighting are important.
Shots should be ‘up close’, with details that can be seen that often are missed by the naked eye or with just the glance that most people give.
Your purpose for this group is to show the world what they are missing and what they do not see. Make it your goal to express the ‘close up’ world we live in.
Limit of two images per day per person.
