Competition results for our third round of competition - "Macro" and Open. Our judge for this competition was Paul Lucas.

Thanks to all members who provided entries.

For the purposes of this competition the set subject of "Macro" was defined as:

Extreme close-up photography, usually of very small subjects and living organisms like insects, in which the size of the subject in the photograph is the same as or greater than life size, Is a type of shot that tightly frames a person or object. Close-ups display the most detail, but they do not include the broader scene.
