Well not too many Macro shots to select from but all 3 are beautiful. Very hard choice.
Don - Nice focus and composition. Nice colours.
Rob - Love the focus stack. Great depth and again very nice vivid colours.
Ed- Beautiful and simple but nicely composed. Very nicely focused.
I would like to call it a 3 way tie but since I can't I will give the very slight edge to Ed.

Congrats Ed, and Don too. Mighty good macros, and good contest topic, Gavin. Surprised there weren't whole a bunch of posts.

I was quite surprised that there were not more. Macro is one of my favourites.
