I went to my local camera club last night and was shocked to get both first and second places with the two shots below. Most of my ideas have come from TP so a big thank you for the that, you know who you are ;) Next round is coming up soon so I will have to head back to the Macro and close up section for some inspiration :thumbs:

Best bit for me was that the other entries were awesomely good so it made the win that much more important for me.
 
big pat on the back to you very very well done fantastic shots too ...
 
sometimes a one word reply is all that's needed, "Nice" :) #2's too big though ;)
 
Congrats, lovely images, loving the colours on the second.
