Thank you to all the photographers that participated in the A World Of Macro Photo Contest, sharing their best photos showing macro & close-up shots. Congratulations to the winners and finalists, and a special round of applause for the Grand Jury Winner who wins a prize bundle.
A special thanks to our friend and professional photographer Joseph Muench for his collaboration as a guest judge. Author of two eBooks on Flatbooks.com entitled “Travel NOT Required”. Joseph is driven to encourage other photographers to find their unique vision and express it even while their access to resources may be limited. He creates wide and varied imagery, but admittedly leans towards his own unique synthesis of abstract, surrealism, detail, and individual perspective.
