*** Mini Challenge #710 Small *** -- WINNERS
1

Mini Challenge #710 Small is closed and we have winners! More entries than the last MC, if I recall correctly. Maybe we're bouncing back? Anyway, some very interesting shots.

Honorable Mentions

Irv's Bic pen closeup - This sort of thing brings out the OCD in me. I spent quite a while trying to see Irv in the reflections on the ball itself...

Ontarian's joyful "little big man". What a cutie! I can see the drool running down his chest!

Rocket13's little fluffed-out hummer. In their (bird) brains they might be mighty hunters, but they're relatively small enough to be cute...

The_WB's toad. What a face! He looks imposing until the scale of the grass exposes his very small size.

Third Place

Richard's picture of (part of) the Grand Canyon, which in its bigness illustrates our relative smallness. It really got my attention when I recognized the vehicle by the road.

Second Place

Ontarian's little snapper! Give it a year or two and you'll be avoiding it rather than taking pics!! The egg looks remarkably like a golf ball...

First Place

Dunlin's Emperor Dragonfly - Wow!! You nailed that one. Beautiful macro.

Congrats to Dunlin for his winning entry - It's in your hands for the next round.

And thanks again to all who entered. Let's keep it going!

Thank you for the HM with Mr. Toad. Yes, he was small, but didn't flinch when I got down to his level to take that picture.

Yes, congrats to Dunlin on your win.  Great capture if I say so myself.

On to the next.
