Macro Photography

Macro Photography is taking close up photos of things such as nature flowers & animals & also it is a good way of showing still life like the photo bellow of the shells. Using this I can use the macro on the camera or the macro lens. The photo bellow was taken with my Lumix & the macro mode on the camera.

For this photo of the straws I have used the Macro lens with my Nikon D5000 camera.

I have also used the Macro lens for taking this photo of this flower as it is the best way of getting the best of detail from a white flower.

Taking this photo on an angle makes a really good photo as it looks like it is looking across at something.

Monochrome flowers are really creative & I like them as they are just like one colour which like flows throughout the photo.


I like things such as seedpod like objects as they are dead looking but show a real sense of style in the detail using the Macro Lens which helped to show this. I like the background as ir puts the seedpods into context in a way that draws them to your eyes.










This was taken with the Macro Mode on My Nikon D5000 Camera & on the Light Box as well, I feel that the light Box lights up the object which helps to show the detail in the photo.

I like this seedpod as it is a really close up shot but we have just the right bit of background used to make it stand out, I have taken this photo on the light box, but I have used the Macro mode on the Nikon D5000 Camera.
