Hi everybody :)
Just as described in the title of this article.
I share this session on another copy that I decided to leave to dry, with the intention of recording some more notable and evident details, once I reached this conclusion.
Of course, all the specimens have a lot to offer visually, but I end up finding it more interesting to record the intrinsic details in these pieces at certain stages of decomposition, and that's exactly what I did, unlike one of the previous ones in which the result originated from a forgetfulness, but this time it was on purpose.
I had the piece in position and the light was directed, since it was a session carried out indoors with artificial light, and behold, in one of the chosen angles and while I was adjusting the distance of the lens to obtain a certain focus, I noticed the movement with the background still out of focus, and it was when I managed to focus that I came across the larva that was there, clinging to the plant that was kept closed inside a small box.
It wasn't easy to record it in detail as it kept moving, but I did my best to be able to share it with you :)
Let me present today’s model:
Before moving onto the result...
- My introductory thoughts about macro photography:
It's amazing how macros with their blurred background can result in such different images full of contrasts and textures especially with this kind of subjects.
In the world of photography, especially macro photography, there is a universe of things available to everyone, enabling totally different and original approaches.
Among the various possible techniques to shoot macros, this is perhaps the most affordable and effective technique for those who have a camera with removable lens.
We can simply remove the lens and reverse the direction, and by using an inverter ring it ends up being more comfortable and facilitates the process.
Let's now move onto the result:
To finish, i leave you with some considerations regarding these photo sessions:
Examining miniature subjects using macro photography unveils a compelling domain where minute details acquire significant importance. Immersion in the intricacies of these diminutive objects enables the recognition of the frequently disregarded beauty within this microenvironment. Each image preserves a transitory instance, displaying the complexity concealed within the small-scale elements of nature. Macro photography's core essence resides in its capacity to elevate commonplace subjects to remarkable levels, presenting an intimate and captivating viewpoint.
The session is closed for today.
Hope you like it :)
