Macro Challenge: Dust

July 12th, 2021
Thank you very much to Wendy @farmreporter for hosting the previous session of the challenge.
A whole bunch of thanks to everyone who participated and made it a challenge.
And another bunch of thanks to all the voters. I was astonished at the appreciation for the onion photograph. I truly didn't see this coming.

I don't know how many of you have gone through this, but in macro photography, one of my biggest annoyances is the dust I spot in the shot after taking the shot. And I either have to fix the shot or to clean everything on the set and retake the shot. Let's make DUST the star of the challenge this time. I hope I will not regret the choice of theme :D

Just remember that this is a macro challenge. The definition of macro photography is to take close-up photos of small objects to make them look life sized or larger. Try to fill the frame to get an incredible amount of detail with your subject.

The challenge will run from Saturday, July 10th to Tuesday, August 3rd. All photographs must be taken between these dates but you can enter multiple times. (and I hope you do!)

Reminds me of a recent post here on 365,

"Do admire the dust, but please don't write in it "

Made me smile!!
