Macro High Contrast Images
In macro photography, a sharp image of a tiny object requires the lens to be positioned much closer still, with the lens moved even further out than for normal photography.The term photo-macrograph was initially proposed in 1899 by W. H. Walmsley for close-up images with less than 10 diameters magnification. Macro photography is commonly seen as extreme close-up photography, usually of very small subjects and living organisms like insects, in which the size of the subject in the photograph is greater than life size as it is."Macro" lenses specifically designed for close-up work, with a long barrel for close focusing and optimized for high reproduction ratios, are one of the most useful tool for macro photography.
In this particular shoot i think that some subject matter that i photographed worked better than others. I managed to capture a high and low depth of view my favorite image out of the selection i took was of the tree bark as it creates a very contrasting effect on the bark showing dramatic shadows and highlights on the bark itself.
However some of these images the image turned out to be too dark, this is due to not allowing enough light into the lens as I was taking the photograph, to fix this I could have used a slower shutter speed or a higher aperture especially on the last picture of the lavender.
If I could redo this shoot I would use a higher aperture to capture lighter images and maybe use a tripod to capture a more focused and crisper image, also I would experiment with using different props or subject matters such as capturing more animal or insect based images.
