Macro May 2024 - Day 28


Day 28 and it' s slim pickings; between exhausting our garden and surrounding area and dodging the raindrops this afternoon. Then I spied this slimy little guy - he'll do.

Macro May 2020 - Day 4


I'm on a roll. Not the best lighting conditions as this was harsh daylight, but I couldn't exactly ask him to swing by later. Also, he was much speedier than I anticipated, so I didn't have long to choose his best side.

Macro May 2018 - Day 25

If you don't live here and watched it on tv, don't let the glorious weather from last weekend's royal wedding fool you, the rest of the week has been gloomy and wet! The snails are out and loving it, but some of us humans (especially the ones who used to live in California) not so much.

Macro May 2017 - Day 11

Day 11 - Camera shy snail and I just wasn't patient enough...


I love macro photography. The ability to get extreme close ups and focus on details. When you focus on a close object, the depth of field is much smaller and I love this effect, which further draws your eyes to the subject being focused on. It forces me to look at things in a different way. For the month of May I will be taking at least one macro photo a day, to add to my collection. Some may be more artistic than others, some may be more technical but I hope to push myself, grow and have fun. Feel free to follow along and let me know if you are doing a similar project that I can follow or if you have any ideas for something you'd like me to try to shoot.
