AS A MACRO MANIAC,
You are reborn as a Liliputian looking out at the world!
Everything is under your scrutiny. Up-sized...gigantic...colossal...gargantuan...massively huge are just some of the words that turn you on...to MACRO that is.
You aren't afraid to get your hands dirty. You feel the adrenaline and satisfaction when you nail the DOF in that shot.
From general close-ups to really up-close and personal 1:1 magnification, nothing thrills you like having to play with extension tubes, dioptres and reverse stacking.
THE WORLD IS YOUR PLAYGROUND!
Follow featured themes if you may, or just run loose like a crazed lunatic and go wild with creativiity!
Be it quaint little mosiacs, tiles, buttons, eyeballs, cookies, candies, creepy-crawlies, flowers, grain or Auntie May's hairy mole.
If it's a MACRO, we WANT it!
But please don't pass off that nipple as a raisin though =)
Pics of you shooting macro, your macro setup or that prized macro lens you just blew your last paycheck on are also welcome.
Discuss gear and techniques. Equipment junkies, camera geeks, style-technique masters come spread your poison.
Most importantly, this group is a learning platform for folks to share and discuss various macro techniques and exchange tips.
To ask/answer queries, aid beginners starting out and give the uninitiated a helping hand.
