Macro photography is a unique form of photography that involves photographing small objects to make them look life-sized or more significant in the photo. The usual subjects include flowers and small insects, which we don't normally get to see up close with the naked eye.

The class will start when the insects are more active. So be ready to explore and capture breathe-taking macro images.

    Sunrise @ Hastings Point - a nice spot where you can get close to the waves washing over the rocks. Need to time it on an incoming tide as the sunrises. Photo Pills helps with the planning.

    A summer rain shower had just finished and I went outside with my camera to explore water on flowers. I saw this beautiful Bird of Paradise flower and knew this was the shot I was looking for.I used focus stacking to capture this image, with over 100 individual images being captured to get this detail. To me, it almost resembles blown glass and I love how vibrant the blues and yellows are.

    I saw the osprey catch a bream from, appropriately, The Bream Hole at Lennox Head but wasn?t quick enough to snap the picture as it flies overhead. They usually take their catch to the pine trees by the lake so I was surprised to see the bird land on a nearby log. I approached slowly and was able to spend around 40 minutes photographing the beautiful bird until a pelican landed and chased it away.
