Close Up and Macro Photography / Bee on flower

Macro photography allows us to bring a small part of the world to larger than life proportions. Bugs, flowers and blades of grass become skyscrapers populated by unusual beings that don't meet the average eye. With macro photography, your backyard can become a treasure trove of subjects.

In this lesson, we are going to explore how to make a simple flower a mesmerizing study with some macro techniques and some small reflectors that should easily be a part of your camera bag. After the lesson, you'll see how these types of photos can really expand your portfolio: tiny subjects that deliver a huge impact!
