Macro photos...

Some of my macro shots from this Spring and Summer.
Theses are tiny little flowers, some barely noticeable from a standing position.

Very nice. I need to get my camera out and play more. To easy now to just use iPhone and call it done.....lol.

Beautiful photos... and not as easy to capture as one might think... based upon my own experiences trying to photograph very small things.
Thanks for sharing your artwork with us.

I have a nice Canon DSLR camera and lenses but now that I have my Smartphone I don't take the Canon out very much anymore. I don't take that many pictures as I did a few years back. I got a macro lens for the smartphone and played around with it for a while.

Well done, brother(s). I'm doing some photography, too, and I'm having a much better time with it (enjoyment-wise) than I ever thought I would.
It's incredible how similar photography is to hunting or fishing, as it shares many of the same approach, stealth, execution, and reward components.
My favorite part is losing yourself in all the peace and quiet out there. I hope to share some of my pics sometime soon. Thanks for sharing yours.

I have been taking underwater macro images for the past 12-13 years. I shot with point & shoot for 10+ years before that, but couldn't get as close to the little things as I wanted. I prefer muck diving to diving blue water, plus, my rig isn't set up for widw angle. Here's a few I have on this computer. I've got albums from all over the Caribbean and the Indo-Pacific with more to come. Enjoy.

Here's a Dwarf Hawkfish I took in Bali. I shoot a Canon D550 with a 100 mm macro. I love the small stuff.

This one's a Spiny Tiger Shrimp I took in Lembeh, Indonesia. It's about 1.25" and one of the coolest looking creatures out there.

This is a picture I took of a pair of Coleman's Shrimp on a Fire Urchin in Lembeh, Indonesia. The only place these shrimp are ever seen is on that species of urchin.
