Great choice of theme for this months' competition, Roy! I expect we'll see some outstanding photos this time.

What you can actually do Josh, is just take a really good pic from a distance and then get on your PC and zoom in on it. The example that I put up is of a snake that was like 2ft. away. It's just that I took it at maximum size (8 megapixel) and then when I put the pic on the PC, I had it go on at actual size...which was pretty big. I just then used an image program to select a section and then saved that to a different file. You can even use the normal old Microsoft Paint program to do it. Just make sure you get a good section of the snake in really good focus, so that when you zoom in, it's still a crisp image.
