Macro DSLR Challenge #108
Textured Fabrics


For this challenge show me a macro of Textured Fabrics. Let's see some cool textured fabric. This can be any kind of fabric with any pattern or texture. Crazy imagination welcome! It is still cold outside (for most of us :), so I thought this could be kept in-doors.
NOTE: Times are CST for this challenge. :)

Challenge #108 begins when posted, and ends SATURDAY at 8:00 PM CST, February 5th, 2011.


Standard Rules apply:
Photo Submissions:

1. Camera - Any 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 submission 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!

One challenge every week, on the following schedule:

* New Topic - After winner is declared.
* Posting Starts - Right after topic is announced.
* Posting Ends - Saturday at 8:00 PM CST, February 5th, 2011 . Winner will be announced shortly thereafter.

Time is up.
There have been a lot of really good entries this week. Some amazing shots were taken, and it is too bad only one can be chosen, because I have three favorites :)

#3 Goes to Warm Corduroy by John_B. I'm always amazed at your photographs. Fit and finish as always is excellent.

#2 Goes to Snow and Ice on my Stocking cap by Mike53545. This one almost pulled it out. The color, clarity/sharpness of the photo is really, really good. I also liked the imagination of a stocking cap with little ice crystals, which were peppered in the shot. Nice!

But you were edged out by the following entry....

Because of how close they are I had to look back at the challenge - - "Let's see some cool textured fabric. This can be any kind of fabric with any pattern or texture. Crazy imagination welcome!"

Based on the sentence above the winner is ....

#1 Goes to Imitation by Jason C. --- Congratulations! Your picture has imagination and creativity. Since it was posted, I found myslelf going back to it many times. I thought it was cool this fabric has many of the same qualities as a leaf, and to cut it out to imitate one, was genious.

There really wasn't a bad one in the bunch. Thanks for everyone taking time out of your busy schedules to post these amazing pictures!

I can see it is doing you justice cause that was a really great photo! The 100L Macro II IS is the 2nd lens on my list to buy.

BTW - Your photo was my daughter and wifes favorite.
