Macro DSLR Speed Challenge #69
Anything Green


So since it seems every day there is more and more green each time I go outside I thought it only appropriate to go with an open challenge of "anything green". It doesn's neccesarily have to be something outdoors it just has to be green :p! Be creative and HAVE FUN!!

Standard Rules apply:
Photo Submissions:


1. Camera - Any Canon DSLR camera
2. Lens - Any lens, or attachment that can give Macro photos (ex. extension tubes, bellows, macro filters, reverse mounted lens and of course a true macro lens.).
3. Time - any on-topic photo taken at any time is eligible, although photos that have won other competitions should NOT be entered.
4. Size - Please see the Image posting rules.
5. Post-Processing - do whatever you like and the host will decide if it works.
6. Posting -
* ONE MACRO PHOTO per photographer in each challenge.
* Photo Name/Title in the message.
* Camera model & lens used in the message.
* Post brief Exif data including ISO, shutter speed and aperture used in the message.
* Notes - anything you feel you need to explain.
7. Commenting - No commenting during challenge. When the posting is closed and a winner has been declared, comments can be made in this thread.
8. Questions - Use PM
9. Have FUN! :smile:


One challenge every week, on the following schedule:

* New Topic - After winner is declared.
* Posting Starts - Right after topic is announced.
* Posting Ends - 6:00 PM EST (Eastern) Friday, April 16th 2010 . Winner will be announced shortly thereafter.
* Winner from this competition decides the theme of the next one (and judges it for a winner) after this competition is closed.

First thanks to everyone who entered! These were some awesome shots and it has been so difficult to choose a winner! So after much debating....

I can't pick a second and third so we have a tie for second! :lol:

2nd place goes to WarlOrd - Really cool shot. Very different and it seems a lot of thought went into this. I'd love to know how you did this one!

2nd place goes to arizona85224 - Very nice. The color is great and the little guy really seems to pop out of the picture.


And the winner - John_B - I asked for green and you gave me green. Wow the color in this one is unreal and a very unique little guy! I loved this picture from the moment I saw it and kept coming back to it. Great Job !

Again awesome shots from everyone, this was not easy to do at all. I hope no one is disappointed because they were all wonderful!! Looking forward to the next challenge!! Congrats again John!
