We put out a call to the people who know cannabis best, the ones who grow it, shoot it and stare at it under a loupe. Send us your best nug shots. What came back filled a print spread and then some. Frosty macros, backlit colas, trichomes that look like something out of a nature documentary about a planet that is not this one.
These are the 25 that made the cut, every one a community submission, counting down to a number one that has to be seen to be believed. Strain first, photographer second. Here is what the culture is pointing its cameras at.
Thanks to everyone who submitted. Keep shooting. We will do this again.
