How To Win

Look carefully at the above picture (it is a magnified image of something being viewed under a microscope). Write down what you think is being viewed under the microscope, and draw or paint your best unmagnified version of it.

What we judge to be the best entries will win the competition prize. 


The Winner

Congratulations to the winner of our Mystery Image competition, 9 year old Billie Philp, from Apollo Bay, Victoria. Billie not only correctly guessed that the mystery image was a butterfly wing, but she also sent us a beautiful watercolour butterfly painting.
