On Sunday, October 23rd, four of my insect macros were chosen as Nominees in the Nature and Wildlife categories, in this annual color photography contest. None of them were awarded any prizes in the end, but it still feels great to see my photos distinguished among many others from around the globe.
These are the selected photos:
