    AND THE WINNER IS...

    Congratulations to JOHN LOWIN and ROMAN KURYWCZAK for their winning entries in the Macro Memorial Day Challenge! Because Roman is moderator extraordinaire in the Lovely Landscape forum below, the hat goes to John who beat out almost a dozen competitors for this grand prize! :D:):D

    Congratulations to everyone who took on the challenge and stepped out of their comfort zone to try one of the extreme ends on the aperture ring. I hope you all had a great time stretching your talents. There were some extraordinary entries this year - so many that I think we might just be doing this again sometime soon. ;)

    Again, congrats to the two tied winners - you get bragging rights until Memorial Day weekend 2010!

    Thank you one and all for your comments, kind words and votes. Makes an old man feel good. I really appreciate them. This is quite an honor, and I'm grateful for your votes and the recognition. Congratulations to all of you that entered the MMDC competition, your images were awesome. I enjoyed all of them and thank you for selecting my image as one of the finalists. The challenge really made me think in a way that I do not usually shoot, and for that too, I am grateful. Thanks again.

    This web site has been such a great learning experience for me, my thanks to all of you that have brought me to this point - John Lowin

    Thanks All! And a big Congrats to John.....very well done and wear the hat proudly! I also want to give a big thanks and shout out to Jules!.....if it wasn't for the challenge, I would not have stepped out of my comfort zone and never even thought of the happy accident....which I applied to the Iris! Got to see if I can get you one of the hats!
    Not looking forward to next year.....as everyone had some strong entries and expect the same of better next year! Not looking forward to Mike coming back with a vengance either:D . Will keep practicing the 3.5 stuff but tough to resist the f32! Thanks again!
