Yay for the "macro"-setting! :-)

We may want to extend the end date as every one seems to have forgotten it.

As my camera really doesn't do macro.

I hadn't forgotten the competition, just what the current date was, I'll upload my pic tomorrow morning, as my computer is having problems and Reg is busy twiddling knobs and suchlike...

Having just returned from Russia it was rather difficult to decide on which image to use (I took over 800 on the 10 day trip!). I have settled on this one because it shows the sheer magnitude of art on the surfaces of buildings/cathedrals in Russia, and art is all about surfaces. This specific one was taken in St. Petersburg at St. Isaacs Cathedral and I think it shows the magnitude of a surface image to Russia as, while Cathedrals such as this were build, poverty and extreme hardship could be found throughout the country.

Here's my rather pathetic entry... (although it was absolutely delicious but still...)

Mal, I've told you before, if you don't want to finish your meal, throw it away or give it to the dog... I'm glad someone at least bothered to do a macro though, it would have been a shame with a theme like this one (although the other pics are nice too, of course )

Horseshoe Harbor. The brown and white layered rocks in the bottom right are stromatolites which are formations built by cyanobacteria. They were the ones who formed the free oxygen that made the early atmosphere breathable. Hey, I actually learned something on a geo fieldtrip.
