Every week we select a new theme, and then go out and shoot that theme. This week the theme is Up Close. As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for.


Show us something Up Close


Here are the rules:
1. Shots need to be taken between Tuesday, after the new theme is posted and the following Monday by sunset (Whenever that is for you). Because this activity is supposed to encourage us to get out and shoot, please don't post images from your archives. Snapshots and art are equally welcome -- just get out & shoot, and then share!
2. Post your shots at any time during the week.
3. Post a maximum of two shots if you're uploading them to POTN (i.e., attaching them). You can post more than two if you're linking to shots that are not hosted by POTN (i.e. embedding them) but keep within POTN rules. Also keep within POTN rules about size. A copy of the size rules can be found here: IMAGE POSTING RULES
That's it! Have fun! As always be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme, creativity is what we're looking for.
An index to previous weeks can be found here: POTN WORLDWIDE PHOTO WEEK INDEX

That's it!
Have fun!

I found a great many scymnine larvae crawling on a damp lawn area in a small urban park. They're fast crawlers, and all the ones pictured were moving. Scymnines (external link) are one group of lady-beetle species, most of them tiny. The white material isn't the larva itself; it's a waxy substance that the larva secretes.

Just got back home from a weekend in Paris where I was up close to the Tomb of Napoleon Bonaparte.
