CUPOTY's Death & Decay Challenge Winners Revealed

CUPOTY's 'Death and Decay' challenge winners are out — and if you shoot macro or nature, this is the brief that separates technical competence from genuine vision. Decomposing fungi, insect carcasses, the slow collapse of organic matter: this is the subject matter that rewards patience, low angles, and a willingness to get uncomfortable. Flip through the winners less for inspiration and more as a calibration — this is the standard serious close-up work is being held to.
