Macro Photography

Macro Photography is for photographing small creatures and pollinators and any other close ups you can shoot to get the photograph you want or need as a nature photographer.

I have done many different types of macro photography this year including taking close ups of spiders, flowers, dew drops, insects and pollinators such as the one on the left.

Critical sharpness is need for macro photography for these subjects. You can use the aperture priority mode do this kind of photography .

Some times the wind can mess up macro photography a lot which means you have to wait for the wind to die down to do macro photography.

Do you notice on this honey bee that the sharpness is full on the honey bee and its wings are shinning?

It certainly is shinning from the sharpness i used to make it do this on macro photography.

This was the when the territorials between the two Great Blue Herons were fighting between which territory belonged to them. I got many good shots of this.

This is also a pair of Black Voltures that seemed to be enjoying this beautiful morning grooming and just hanging around the side of Jordan Lake which I also got many shots of them doing their grooming styles for the day.
