“It is not the grand scenic, but the
details that comprise the scenic. It is
not the wide scope of nature, but the
intricate texture of nature itself. It is
not the overview, but the closer
view.”
-John Shaw (Closeupsin Nature)

April: Close-up and Macro
The image must be a close-up view of a subject. The principal impact
derives from the “drama”of the unique perspective of a close up.
Any subject matter that lends itself to this treatment is appropriate, whether
in nature or the man-made environment.
Subjects may be shown in their entirety, such as a bee on a flower, or
partially, such as just a bee’s legs covered with pollen.

A VERYgeneral term!
