Thanks for all the entries this week! You had some great shots of ice. I love taking macros of ice and seeing what nature reveals to us in the ice through the macro lens. It was nice to see your take on it!

It's late and I'm headed to bed, so no comments right now. I may post those tomorrow morning. To me one image really stood out from the group, so I'm giving this week's win to Bend the Light and "Freeze or Flow". I loved the color and detail in the shot, not to mention the great job of timing on "freezing" the drop at just the right moment. I know how hard that is to do.
Way to go!

BTW, welcome to the world of macro Stephen! I'm sure you'll love your new 100mm macro!

Cool! (pun intended!)

Do I need to post a new challenge now?

Best way? Copy the blurb in the first post with a new title and post a new thread?

Let me know and I'll sort it.

Cheers.

Craig

John, thanks for sending the PM to Craig on what to do. I went to bed with a headache last night & woke up with a migraine this morning, and it's still not gone. :cry:

Craig, let me know if you need any more info on what to do.
