House fly head taken by Charles Krebs, Washington State c2005
Toronto. The image you see at left is the 2005 winner of Nikon’s Small World competition. The competition is open to all for macro images shot through a microscope. The photo is a magnified view of a house fly head taken by Charles B Krebs on the west coast in Washington State (Charles Krebs Photography Issaquah, Washington, USA).
I first became aware of this competition on recently getting an email from Nikon about their 2025 video winners. The images were in colour and gave a different view of every day items. The images show what photography can do in the macro range!
Take a peak in your collection and see if you have any old macro photos. While we can’t say just what will appear at our fairs, we can say they are a great opportunity to find that special item to add to your collection. The fairs have free parking there and near-by; great food; friendly people; and cheap admission! Our next fair is on October 19th at the Trident Hall Evans/Islington in the west end. See our July PHSC News (issue 25-7) for details.
NB. This post title brings to mind the c1967 child’s song of the same name
