Hi everybody :)
If I didn't describe it, perhaps you wouldn't guess what the copy I'm sharing today is about.
Well, perhaps it is possible to get an idea from the 2 exemplary images that I put at the beginning, but based on what follows, just a series of decrepit and rough layers, with faded and neutral tones with some spaced notes perhaps would only make visualizations guessable. abstract.
It is a pine cone in an advanced state of decomposition, found encrusted on top of one of those shale walls that delimit vacant lots in a mountainous area.
I myself almost didn't understand what it was about when I saw it for the first time, while I was collecting some samples of the undergrowth that grows on these walls, protected from the wind and sun.
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 :)

Beautiful macro shots @aleister! One question, do you have a macro lens or do you use the inverted lens? I have done the latter and it gives me good results but I must say that your shots are even cooler 🤩
