Thank you RR for starting a new week with 'Free Sunday'. It's always a fun challenge day. This next challenge will be getting up close and personal to your subject. So get out your macro lens; or use your macro setting on your camera. Or take some close-ups photos. It all works for this challenge. Have fun!
Here are a couple of links; one on tips and one of images:

I've not met the requirements of true macro....but do enjoy trying. My examples are more likely better described as close-ups with a little macro thrown in.

From Missouri. The last picture is a carving on a rock at a friend of mines farm. It's a flat stone that has sevral carving on it. This one is a cross and at the bottom has the letters IHS. Another one is a dove with the date, 1927. They believe that the carvings were made by some soldiers that were camping in the area after World War 1.

All of them are very nice. Here's a close-up I got in the early morning light.
