Community Photo Challenge - Macro

Wow, it has been a long time since I participated... but I'm back! I hope you enjoy these. I came across this strange maze-like structure on the beach here in Northern California, but then I noticed the even stranger "offerings" in the middle. I did add to the coinage with a coin I had found in the parking lot... hey, it might be a shrine or an alien portal and I did not want to upset the juju...

I love the macro feature on my camera.  

There's something about getting up close and right into my subject.  

I also love how the background blurs into a wonderful palette of color.

I got a chance to play with my macro feature this weekend, getting the last vestiges of autumn color before the snow comes.  

Of course, then I'll have a whole new subject to photograph.
