Member Photo Share Theme: Look Closely
“The obvious choice here is a macro. But … maybe it’s an image with an obvious subject and, noticeable only on a close look, a little unexpected object that makes the picture special. Or maybe there is a detailed texture or pattern that is an important element in the image. Or maybe one of those clouds in your skyscape looks like Elvis. Scour your files for photos where little things mean a lot.” – Bill Galloway
You are encouraged to send 2 images for this part of the meeting, on this topic … or another if you prefer.
