2. WHAT IS MACRO PHOTOGRAPHY?
• Micro Photography is a genre in photography which involves taking photos of
which the natural eye would not view in everyday life. Macro means small.
So using a standard issue lenses usually would not be useful when
attempting to explore macro photography. A lenses with 35-55 and a
polarizer would be they perfect setup using a 400-600D with macro
adjustments.
• Macro photography has expanded a lot since it was first founded as a genre.
Macro photography used to mean taking images of a grain or smaller.
• Nowadays Anything not seen by the natural eye is called ‘macro’.
4. NARROWING DOWN CHOICES:

wildlife:
5. MY CHOICES:
• I have chosen these two as they stand out from the
rest in my eyes. These two photos really explore the
world of macro under our noses.
• Image 1 explores how wasps use their surroundings
and work in pairs.
• Image 2 shows us how other species live and survive
in the wild.
• For me macro photography is a great choice and I
would like to showcase this sort of imagery on Task 7.
