Macro PhotographyMacro photography is a lot of fun. Macro photography is close-up photography whereby the image imprinted on the film is the size as the subject of the macro photo is in real life. So on a traditional 35mm film camera, the subject will have life-size magnification. Camera makers are lying about their lens' abilities to accomplish macro photography by saying a macro lens can focus on a subject so that when a 4x6 print is made, the image is life-size. This is not true macro photography. Closeup pictures, close-up picturesCloseup pictures aka close-up pictures are the layman's term for macro photography. Macro photos let you see what a fly's eye looks like. Closeup pictures and close up photos let you see what the veins in an eye look like or they let you see the tiniest, most minute details in a penny. The lenses used in this field of photography focus extremely close, and therefore photographers incredible control over what they take pictures of. Macro photographerTo be a macro photographer is challenging because you have to see the world in close up. Photographers often overlook that. The best macro photographer will try to photograph and entire role of film within a radius of 5 feet from any given point. This forces one to look closer at the world around him or her. It's a good exercise. Cool linksFeel free to visit Nathan's other work:
